I should let you guys know what happened to me yesterday

I fainted at Wal-Mart yesterday. Twice in a row to be exact. Here is how it went down.
I hadn't eaten since Friday at 4pm and it was 3:30pm the next day when I fainted.
I was shopping at wal-mart with my mother and as we were waiting in the check out line my body started to feel heavy and my head felt light. I didn't tell my mum anything because I've felt that way before and usually it passes. When I was loading some more yarn onto the belt apparently I had stopped mid turn and was staring at the candy for a second and the next thing I knew I blacked out and hit my face on the shelving(I felt that blow) and heard my mum cry out my name repeatedly. Next thing I knew I was being helped up by my mum and this lady who was in front of us. (I don't remember this part well but my mum says) Mum was asking me if I was alright and I replied I was fine and she asked again and I said I was fine. Then she hugged me and my body had gone limp in her arms so she sat me back down. After that they called the ambulance. Then I was stuck at the hospital for a few hours because they were running tests. They said everything was normal and that I should eat, but we're going to do a follow up exam in a few days. I've blacked out before but not fainted according to medical standards( I have to hit the floor) The first time I recall it happening was after I came back from visiting a friend and I was returning to my room from getting water I felt my body get heavy and I blacked out then I hit my leg the ottomen in front of my bed really hard and I guess I sorta woke up and put the drink on the nightstand and laid down. Never before have I fainted twice in a row though. I'll keep you guys informed about what's going on if you're interested. I'm currently not feeling too hot and should probably rest some more. If you guys have any questions I don't mind answering them so go ahead and shoot. I would post this on my new acc. but FA is being a butt and won't let me long in so I have to get that sorted before I can post. Also as I'm sure you've all guessed this will dampen my drawings for a while till I get better so as much as I was wanting to draw today I just can't focus.
Just though I'd let you guys know what was up so yeah :)

I'm getting better slowly but surely. :)
What you describe sounds exactly like what would happen to him.
Thanks for the tip :)
