So yeah, I just left the doctor's office about half an hour ago. I went in to have to have a routine physical and everything was normal. I have lost 10 pounds since my last physical so the doc wanted me to take a blood test, no biggie. Well, when the nurse stuck me she got the vain perfectly but she wouldn't stop moving the needle around. She probably didn't even realize it because it was such little movements but it hurt like hell.
After I stood up and left the room the nurse and my dad were like, "Good job" and "Do you feel okay?" I felt fine. When we went to check out all of the sudden I felt like I was seriously going blind. I started getting tunnel vision and the room was fading away so I kinda groaned and told my dad. I found that it was really difficult to speak. So the nurse got me a chair and gave me some orange soda to get some sugar in me. It was like smelling salts after being unconscious, it made me feel a lot better. So then with my feet dangling around and my eyes closed they got me a wheelchair and made me lay down on a table...the scary part is I don't even remember being moved to a different room. My arms and legs were asleep, the pins and needles feeling. The doc and the nurses kept making comments about my face turning weird colors and stuff. After they checked my blood pressure a few times they let me leave and I feel okay now.
