not again.

so i was in clinical this morning and it was my week to shadow a nurse. i got an awesome nurse named teryn. we were in the fourth patient's room of the morning and teryn was taking a drain out of a guy's neck. i was feeling kinda weird so i started moving my legs just in case i had locked my legs. teryn finished dressing the patient's neck and taped it down. we were getting ready to leave the room when i started getting lightheaded. i sat down in a chair and told teryn, "i'm kinda lightheaded. i think i might pass out..." and at that point, apparently i did. haha. i passed out right there in my patient's room. i threw up about two times and seized up a little. anyways, they were worried about me so they stuck me on a stretcher and took me to the emergency room. that's where i picked up a little souvenir: the doc said all my blood work and vitals were normal. so anyways, no clue as to what made me pass out. i'm thinkin it's a blood sugar thing. hopefully this weirdo passing out thing will stop. haha. i'm sure it'll stop eventually. right? so that was my crazy day. ooh. i got one more souvenir from the ER:

i'm not sure if you can tell what that says, but it's a school excuse! isn't that awesome? i was crackin up! i just think it's awesome that they give school excuses just in case my professor didn't believe that i passed out and went to the ER. luckily for me, my clinical instructor was there when i passed out, so i won't have to try and convince her.
