came darn close to blacking out last night (after going to the loo), majorly painful cramping, hands got cold and white, darkness and flashes of light were closing in on my vision.....
crawled to the phone, and called an ambulance, then my dear friend mickie... waited a few minutes on the cool linoleum.... the paramedics took my blood pressure, sat me up.... i managed to walk to the amby (i guess that means i was ambulatory by then, lol) and got a nice ride 2 blocks to emerg.
saw the doc, he poked around my belly and listened to my gurgling gut, then sent me home.
he said it was just (albeit he acknowledged it was a scared-the-hell-outta-me 'just') .... gas cramps.
i think they were chuckling when i left.
needless to say, i was - and still am - not so amused....
i thought i was gonna die!
Gah, you poor thing. I had that feeling once, turned out to be heartburn that came on during my sleep. It was awful.
