Again, I've been bad with the posting! Okay, may be I'll make multiple posts to make up for it. This one is a Health post to make note that I blacked out--- again. This happened a month ago at mom's house. In front of the "friend". Hmm. According to him, I stood up and said I needed a glass of water. Next thing I knew, I was on the floor with my head resting on the couch. Thank goodness it was at mom's! He went to wake her (mind you it was 2:00 am!), and she went into mom/ former nurse mode. Blood pressure cuff, lie down, take pulse, etc. During this whole time Friend was there. When I was on the floor he laid on the couch and held my hand the entire time-- even when he dozed off.
This week, I went for a Holter monitor test. I did one five years ago when I passed out last time. Hopefully, it won't show anything. I think I was tired and had been running around trying to cook dinner for the Friend. Maybe in all the excitement I became dehydrated and my body reacted. Who knows. I'll probably call the pcp next week to find out if there is anything to find out.
