Felt like I was going to pass out

[Plato38]

So I was super anxious on Saturday. We were having a BBQ outside and when I handed my brother a sweater I felt like someone unplugged me. Like I went offline. Things went very still and quiet and it was almost as if I was about to faint but didn't. I was still able to talk and walk away to retreat into the house to regroup but I've never felt that before and it scared the crap out of me. Now I'm afraid it's a new thing for me. I also forgot to eat all day. It was 2pm and I ate a small breakfast at 9am. Can anyone relate?

Yes indeed I can. I had almost the same thing happen this past Saturday.. Gathered outside with some friends for coffee .. When it was time to part company I attempted to stand up and the whole world literally revolved around me. A strange quite hit me as well, and I couldn't hold tow thoughts together much less talk.I had "moderately " high BP and rapid pulse.. I drank a couple 1/2 Ltrs of water. Had to sit back down and regroup.. This went on for about 20 minutes then I was able to walk back home. I'm now waiting for my GP to call back and advise..

I'm wondering if it could be a retro grade side effect from the 2nd COVID vac????

So, I had my second shot a week ago. I was really anxious about seeing my Brother because he had just gotten off a plane and it's like my body was freaked out subconsciously. Now I'm worried that it will happen again. And I can't seem to get that loop out of my head. It was almost like you feel right before you go under for anesthesia. That quite and weightlessness. It only last a couple seconds but it was that panic afterwards that was annoying and still is.

That is indeed odd. I'd suggest calling your MD and see what they have to say.. Sometimes we tend to over think situations which in increase anxiety.. I'd suggest you find a space i your "comfort zone" and relax if you can.God luck with what ever is happening. I'm sorry that you're experiencing this situation.

The unknow is the hardest and most stressing thing to deal with.
