I passed out three times in 2008.

 Last April 2008 i was finishing up for my finals for school.Yes I decided to go back to school after being diagnosis with MS to keep my mind busy. Any way all the studying I guess was a little bit too much for me at the time. The night before my finials I was studying and started to get tired but felt sick also so i went to the bathroom to rinse my face to cool off I felt dizzy so I went and sat on the toilet seat andput my head in my lap next thing i knew my was on the bathroom floor with my husband and daughter looking at me and asking me if I was ok and what happened? They thought that I had a seizure because when they found me on the floor i was shaking and there was blood dripping from my lip from hitting the tub and after the shaking I blacked out for about 30 sec and woke up.

Then in July I went to support my my nephew in court this was his first offence I was running a little late due to traffic but as i got there and walked through the door the judge was giving him his sentence of 7 1/2 to 15 years he has never been in trouble before and the person that was pressing charges had a prior record unlike my nephew I'm was so hurt I cried. The next day me and my sister went to the park to try to take our mind off of things but out of no where I felt my self get dizzy and knew it was going to happen again so I sat down in the car with the doors open and layed the seat back and told my sister I didn't feel good but don't worry i will blackout and wake back up. Right after that my sister said that I straighten up like I was trying to stand up then i fell back in the seat and blackout and then woke up.

In Aug 2009 I got 2 calls about two weeks apart first was a call from my cousin telling my that my first cousin got killed in NJ. He meant so much to me he had no mother she had passed when he was 9 years old and he's father wasn't around his grandparents were passed also so I tryed to be there when ever I could. I tried not to let it get me down so my husband took me to the movies the next day to try to cheer me up and in the middle of the movie i felt like I had to go to the bathroom but when I got there I went to the bathroom and when i was about to wash my hands I felt dizzy and light headed and started to sweat so i sat on the toilet seat and passed out I didn't fall instead I was holding on to the walls when i woke up.The Second call was after my cousin funieral  about 3 weeks later a friend from childhood get shot 3 times in the head now I cant deal with bad news too good, so I decided to pray for my friend instead of cry for hIm and believe it or not I didn't pass out and my friend made a full recovery after about 11 long months.

I went to see my neurologist because he thought that I was having seizures but i knew and told him that was not possible because I can tell you when im going to pass out and when I wake I can tell you what happened. People that suffer with seizures don't know they are going to have one let along tell you where they are or what happened when they come out of the seizure. Well to please him I took a table tilting test which came back normal no seizure, and I also took an EEG test where there place these sticky tabs on your head. Well this came back normal also.

I came to the conclusion that I was stressed and I realized that My menstrual was on its 2nd day which caused my hormones to be a little out of wack. I was able to read the signs the dizziness, lightheaded,cold sweat, before I passed out so I knew what to do so I didn't hurt myself again. I try to make sure I stay free and if I don't feel too good don't over do anything.
