I couldn’t see and my face was turning white..?
so a few minutes ago, i was in the bathroom brushing my teeth and you know those mirror cabinets? well it was halfway open and i accidently bumped the front of my hand into the corner and it left a BIG cut. It didn’t hurt or anything though.. but it looked disgusting.. like you can see the inside. So i called my sister and all of a sudden, i got really dizzy and everything turned blurry until i couldn’t see. I couldn’t even stand up without support. And my face was turning white and i began to sweat. But then after i drank some water and fresh air, i started to be able to see again and i wasn’t dizzy anymore. Any ideas why just because i bumped my arm this all happened? Could it be that i couldnt stand the sight of blood? or did i hit a nerve? ..i seriously thought i was about to die or go blind..
i couldnt go to the ER because if i did, my insurance would be canceled. this happened to my sister and she’s not allowed to get health insurance for the rest of her life. and we had to pay $1,000 for her trip to the hospital.. im just asking because i’m curious, not because i need to know. i’m feeling a lot better now.
Sounds like typical symptoms of a panic attack. They will make you feel like you’re crazy or dying. They can also cause extreme paleness and sweating.
It can cause symptoms so severe that it resembles someone having a low blood sugar attack, & definitely makes you feel like you’re going to pass out. However since you felt better after air & water, it was not low blood sugar.
Yes, people do complain of being unable to see. I have witnessed this.
Since it was a big cut, you probably had a bad reaction to seeing the inside of your finger. NOT uncommon.
If anything like this happens again, you may either not react at all, or react in the same way you did this time.
Hope this helps!
Help stocking medicine cabinet?
Today I cleaned out my medicine cabinet and finally threw out years of expired, mostly unused junk. I’m seeking specific recommendations for what a well-stocked medicine cabinet should or should not include. What are your bathroom cabinet essentials? Too often, I find myself going to the drugstore for items late at night. Thanks!
I live with my boyfriend, by the way. No children.
How many people live in your place? What ages? Makes a difference!
I keep aspirin, Advil, Aleve, Benedryl, and Excedrin migraine. An assortment of band aids,
neosporin, and ace bandage, some cough syrup, some sinus/allergy medicine and
some cold capsules. I also like to have some Pepto Bismol tablets, and cough drops.
I keep Hydrogen Peroxide, Rubbing alcohol, cotton balls and q tips, as well as a thermometer and some tweezers. I’ve also added a mosquito bite pen, to help with those itchies.
Hope that helps!
