Confused Another dumb symptom?

Had a really bad day today...it started off just fine. Typical busy Monday at work. No real problems except same annoying tingling feet & itchy feeling as the neurotin wears off before my next dose.

My boss says that I was filing & that she and my co-worker called out to me. I remember feeling weird (yes, I say weird alot about some of these symptoms) and my vision was strange. The lights faded & were kinda like the dark yellow that the sky gets before a storm. Weird but true.

I don't recall them talking to me. I was standing & I didn't pass out but I was unresponsive. When I came back from wherever I was...I was shaky & crying.

My boss called an ambulance...I let them check my blood pressure & responded to their questions. Was I wrong not to go to the hospital? Has anyone else had that happen? Other than a few muscle spasms in my toes & in my calf muscle (weird symptom that started this past week), I'm fine.

Thanks for any response...

That sounds awful. Can't suggest any reasons, sorry. and only you can decide if you should have gone to hospital i guess. Hope it doesn't happen again for you.

I would definitely see your doctor as soon as you can. It could be just some MS weirdness, or it could be something more serious. Don't guess. Rule out other stuff. And keep us posted!! How frightening that must have been for you!

I agree with B2y...see your doctor .

My first thought (which could be wrong) was some sort of seizure.

(((((New2net)))))

How scarey for you and for your co-workers too. Yes, that's the first thing I thought of, is a seizure.

I don't blame you for not going to ER but, you should seek your Doc's care. It may have just been a one time event, brought on by stress. I hope so.
