Fainting - 🇰🇷 Patriotism Assembly Fainting (Fainting)

Forty to fifty years ago, every Monday was Patriot Assembly, and the principal's speech was so long.

Suddenly, the sky turned yellow, and I felt dizzy and nauseous, then I collapsed and fainted.

 

✅Definition of fainting (syncope)

Fainting is a symptom of sudden loss of consciousness due to decreased cerebral blood flow, commonly known as fainting, characterized by rapid onset, short duration, and spontaneous recovery, involving loss of consciousness and muscle strength.

With great difficulty, I managed to go to the nurse's office with the help of friends.

It recovered immediately and returned to normal.

However, it didn't stop after just once, and there were several more instances of fainting (passing out).

Big snow. No rain. Without fail, the patriotic assembly is held.

Since I fainted (passed out), I couldn't avoid going to the inquiry next time.

Back then, people were ignorant and going to the hospital was uncommon, so they didn't go to the hospital because they would recover quickly.

About five years later, the day before, my mother was very ill and couldn't sleep. When I was commuting to work, I collapsed and fainted on the street as soon as I got off the bus.

The symptoms were the same as expected.

The experiences of the sky being yellow happened in an instant.

Some people thought I had epilepsy, so they didn't touch me, took me out of the pharmacy, brought me back to the pharmacy to calm me down, took a taxi, received IV treatment at the hospital, and then discharged.

Back then, it wasn't even the time to call 119.

As seen in the definition, fainting was characterized by rapid onset and spontaneous recovery within a short period.

 

I don't know if I was already thin and tall back then due to nutritional deficiency.

Since then, I have not fainted and have been living healthily.

Now that I see it, this symptom might be orthostatic hypotension.
