Passing out is not fun... I do not suggest doing it anytime soon if at all possible

This morning I felt like crap but I decided that I was going to work because I missed 3 days last week. I get to work and feel like crap all day and can't wait to go to lunch. Before lunch I even felt like I was going to pass out but put my head down and felt a little better. So I come back from lunch and I'm fine for a while and then all of a sudden I felt really sick, it hit me like a ton of bricks so I tried to get through with my customer as soon as possible. Once I was done I knew I was going down so I tried to turn around and tell someone I was going to pass out and down I went. I took my coin tray with me and I just hit the floor, smacked my head on the floor and was out for 30 seconds to a minute. Luckily there was a cop standing in line right behind me (I was at the drive thru, therefore my back was too the rest of the bank) who is also an EMT so he ran out to his car, got his kit and took my vitals. Since I hit my head he decided that I need to go to the hospital and because I hit my head they had to board and collar me (Back board and neck collar complete with complete immobilization... i.e. not fun!)

In the ambulance I got an IV while it was moving! Again, not fun. Then they took blood at the hospital (Jaime, the human pin cusion) they also did a cardiogram (EKG) and a CaT scan to make sure I didn't do any damage to my head. They all turned out fine and ruled that I passed out because I've been sick for the past 1-2 weeks. But I'm fine for now, I have to call and see my regular doctor and the doctor at the hospital wants me to take the next day or two off from work. So if anyone wants to come and visit me feel free :-)
