Monday night I went to the ER. I really debated whether or not I needed to, but I'm kinda glad I did. Earlier in the night, I was feeling a little dizzy, but I figured that was because I was making fast movements. At least until I, what felt like, almost passed out. I was laying in my bed eating a granola bar and drinking water. At one point I was looking up taking a bite of my granola bar when all the sudden I felt really light headed. I went to look over at my roommate's wall and it looked like the room was moving. My vision was blurry and I started leaning towards my computer; not being able to stop myself. I then texted two of my group chats freaking out because I had never had anything like that happen to me before. However, at this point, I didn't think I needed to go to the hospital. I thought it was a one time, freak thing until it happened again. After the second one, I was debating it. My deciding factor was whether or not I'd be able to walk. When I tried I was very wobbly and it wasn't good. I ended up having someone from my Odyssey group chat take me.

We got to the hospital around eleven at night. It was kind of weird because I didn't really know how to check into the ER especially since I didn't necessarily look sick. After checking me in they took me into the back to check my blood pressure and then had me wait in the lobby until they had a bed ready. When I got to my bed they had me undress from the top up and put on a gown. They then put in an IV and a blood pressure cuff. After the doctor came in I told him what was going on and he ordered an EKG, an x-ray, and blood test. This was pretty much the last time I saw the doctor. Nurses really do run the hospital. Like if you think about it the nurses are always there and they're the ones to take blood samples or take another test.

When they told me that I was going to get an EKG done I sarcastically said I love EKGs. However, I really don't think it came across that way because the nurse then said, "Wow, that was the first time I've heard that". At one point I also said that I use humor to cover my pain and only my friend and I laughed. I definitely don't think the nurses found me amusing. I thought I was pretty funny though. I also started to get tired around 12 and wanted to sleep, but like I kinda felt like I needed to stay awake which sucked. We ended up staying there for about three hours and I think I got back to my dorm at like 2:30 in the morning.

All the test came back normal, so there wasn't a definite reason for me feeling like I was going to pass out. I am still happy I went in though because I was listening to my body and it really did seem like something was wrong. So I am completely fine, and I probably won't be dying anytime soon. Also, sorry mom for the medical bill; I love you.
