Thank you everyone for your concern! I'm feeling much better meanwhile, just been washing out litter boxes and doing laundry... I will call my doctor this week and tell her what happened, but since this happened at a weekend, I couldn't call her so far. The only thing I could have done is going to the hospital, but I didn't want that as they would have kept me there, and I don't have anyone for my girls.

As scary as it was, I think the reason why I fainted is not so dramatic (at least I hope so) - it was just the pain, it was really overwhelming and made my system crash. I remember there was a similar situation in the 90s, but at that time, I still lived in my small apartment, and I made it back to my bed, and once I laid down, I started feeling better. As for my colon, I already got a lot of diagnosis, and I know it's not working in some parts. Guess there isn't much you can do about it...

Right now, the reason why I passed out doesn't worry me as much as the fear that there may be some brain injuries from the fall. I'm feeling better, but I was told there could be nasty things such as intracranial hemorrhage which you don't neccessarily need to notice, at least not in the beginning... Scary stuff, and I bet when I'm telling my doctor about it, another MRI will be in order...

But right now, I'm fine, so please don't worry...


Richard, I can see very well why this can make you paranoid!
