Haven't been feeling well for a few days, have had a sickness bug and haven't been able to keep much down.
Sitting on my laptop in bed watching YouTube just now and all of a sudden with no warning, my eyesight went totally black, my head was pounding, I felt warm all over and my arms were tingling. It went within 10 seconds or so but I genuinely was terrified for those 10 seconds.
Something to worry about or just related to being dehydrated etc?

You must be shattered @whatfreshhellisthisnow

Just a little!

they have taken bloods and are going to give me IV fluids, painkillers and anti sickness medication. Still waiting on the blood results.

I can’t complain at all, they have been very speedy this morning.

common before fainting likely due to dehydration

Fluids and medication done and back home - bloods ok bar the dehydration - have medication for next week.

thank you again to everyone for your comments and kind words (especially those in the wee hours when I was on my own)
