I had a dizzy spell while driving during my lunch break last night >>

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

Last night I was driving back to my job while on my lunch break when all of a sudden,everything around me was fuzzy , everything was shaky and I just felt like I was floating - it felt like an out of body experience (as if I just woke up) to the point that I just screamed slightly. There were two cars behind me and I was praying to God that I did not do anything to harm them or myself. Thank goodness that I did not have the dizzy spell while I was out on busy road... its just a weird feeling.And I still feel woozy. This has never happened to me before. I felt almost like I did'nt know where I was and felt as if I was not even behind the weird. This was so weird. I think someone slipped something in my food because my medicine never made me feel like this and I have been taking it regulary. I am a good mood but natural highs should'nt make me feel woozy. I hope that I feel better today.

(Yes this is true and I am not tripping.)

1. Do you remember any other symptoms?

Like rapid heartbeat, etc.?

Sounds to me like it might've — might've been a panic attack.

6. No I have had panic attacks many times before...

and they build up and normally I am angry for no reason.

2. Did you eat something out of the ordinary?

Or were you concentrating real hard at the driving?

Sometimes I have kind of a dizzy spell when I look too long and concentrated on my computer screen. My eyes are protesting then.

3. maybe blood sugar? I had a similar experience except I actually

fainted. Doc said my blood sugar bottomed out. Come to find out I am pre-Diabetic.

4. Sounds like it. Either that or low blood pressure

When you're driving is probably the worst possible time for it to happen, too. :scared:

8. Was this before or after food?

Before sounds like hypoglycemia, after food could have been some sort of reaction to something you ate.
