Um, well, I feel kind of like an idiot posting about this for you guys but, anyways..

Two nights ago... {Thursday night... I think?}, I had a seizure at work, which I've never had before, and to anyone who has ever had a seizure before will know it's extremely f*cking scary experience.

Anyways, thank god my manager was with me and I was about to serve a customer when it happened, but my manager phoned my mom first to ask her what to do.... Like, who wouldn't phone 911 first...? Luckily there were doctors staying there, but it's not like they did much besides having me choke on water when I was numb.

But atleast I had two extremely good looking paramedics who one actually knew my brother... Weird... And then at the hospital they just did bloodwork while I sta around listening to all the drunks in there..., and they were ready to give me ablood transfusion while I was there because my iron was so extremely low in my blood which affects your sleep and makes you feel tired all of the time {but I've had that for so long that I never noticed} and supposedly will also make you pale, bt again, I've always been pale that I wouldn't have known a difference.

But I'm really just making this post so you guys know, because I still don't feel completely right and I did hit my head which the doctors didn't realize and which I only noticed when I got home and went to brush my hair. And I actually feel worse today, two days later, than I did yesterday.

So, I see my doctor on Monday so hopefully she'll be able to shed some more light on why this even happened. Bleh.

I can only imagine what it was like for the people that witnessed it... I know I'd be flipping out.

Zen, I am still very, very tired no matter how much sleep I'm getting and I still have a bad headache, and yeah, I'll be sure to tell my doctor... It's still a goosebump and it's still painful and red so I definitely won't forget lol, can't even lay down on that side of my head... I'm so surprised they never noticed it.

Guitar Smasher, yeah, when I went to the emergency room they checked everything and I didn't have a concussion. They also did a bunch of bloodwork and stuff and they wouldn't have let me leave if I wasn't okay. But thanks for tell me that, because sometimes they'll forget that kind of thing.

Chicken, what happened to you? That sounds scary...

I still feel very crappy, but I just hope my doctor has some answers for me tomorrow... And hopefully I won't have to go back to work, because I really don't feel up for returning on TUESDAY! My boss supposedly was kind of pissed that I wasn't going to be back for four days... And my head boss still hasn't even phoned me, yet I've had my dad's bosses phone me... Weird. :S

Anyways, thank you guys for posting... I'm just very lucky that nothing worse happened - I could've broken a bone or something more serious, I'm surprised I didn't hurt myself more.
