I was drinking one night with some friends I had allot of beer. I wasn t trashed but definatly feeling the alcohol. I ate dinner and had to go to the bathroom I went to look in the mirror and got this crazy dizzy spell my head was spinning I tried calling for help but it took everything in me to shout for a friend. By the time my friends heard me I fainted and was laying on the floor and convulsing and vomiting . I remember being down but it felt like a dream until I was done throwing up. I drank lots of water and it never happened again but what was that? Was I dehydrated? Did I have a seizure? I don t understand. Please help!
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. There are two possibilities in your case: 1. Syncope-in this condition, a person faints for a short while, and recovers completely on its own. It may occur after exhaustion, fatigue, fear, etc., due to transient lack of blood flow to the brain. 2. Seizures-in this condition, a person may faint without any provocation. After regaining consciousness, the person has confusion for some time. I feel most likely you had a syncope, given the circumstances in which you had it. Please consult a neurologist for detailed evaluation. Best wishes, Chat Doctor.
