Hey, I am finally well and back to work,
However, my 15 year old daughter was brought home from the mall last week by the paramedics. She had a bout of vomiting, a crushing feeling in her chest, she says she saw stars and everything was black and then cloudy grey.
We were at the other side of the city caught in traffic.
The paramedics said they could take her home for us because she was feeling better.
Her sugar levels were fine, no apparent heart trouble, I am trying to make an appointment with her geneticist.
In the meen time anyone had similar experiences?

    thank you. Very helpful. Now I am trying to figure out if I had a stroke, or a small seizure. The symptoms were so vague it is hard to know, and doctors and nurses in hospitals do not listen very well
