Hey guys! had to go to the ER in an ambulance tonight. I had a pretty active day today and walked around a lot so i was pretty drained. I had one of my episodes but this time it lasted much longer than my usual and i wasn’t responding so my parents called an ambulance. has this happened to any of you before? the eye rolling to the back of the head for a few minutes. the lethargic feeling and being dead weight?
I have felt this way during pre-syncope. (Face pale, sweating, can't hear/see clearly, extreme nausea and thirst, however never unresponsive. Look into different types of seizures to make sure other neurological problems can be ruled out! What did the ER doctor say?
Those episodes usually indicate a cardiac episode for me and when I'm that bad, I'm probably about to have a seizure. It's awful. 0/10 experience. I hope you're home and feeling better now, and I hope the paramedics were nice to you because sometimes they're REAL mean about young people having problems
yea thats exactly how i felt it just went on for way too long and i started shacking and my eyes were fluttering. im still in the er and am on an iv now and just had a ct scan but im going to a neurologist soon to get more information. thanks!
thank you so much!! the paramedics were super sweet (from what i was conscious for lol) im about to head home and im feeling much much better now. it sucks, im so sorry we’re going through this. sending lots of love
