Re: I fainted
Not hours, 30 minutes. But my legs were locked because the room was practically a closet. In retrospect, all of my "near-fainting" episodes (ive had 3 in the past year including this one) involved me standing motionless prior. One was waiting in line at dennys, the other was waiting over a grill trying to melt a easter rabbit so i can make smores.
I also lost 45 pounds the first year of college (no freaken clue), so I wonder if the drastic weight loss may have affected my resting BP. I was 120/80 prior, and Ive had readings as low as 90/50 but mostly ~110/~65 since.
I think this is what your talkinga bout?
