Today I got sick. 

I woke up at 6am and got ready for a yard sale, ate a homemade blueberry muffin, which everybody else had at least one of.  While putting the jewelry out I felt a little faint.  It wasn?t so hot ? in fact it was cool out.  I hadn?t had enough sleep, but so what?why should that bother me?  I felt a wave of it again and I thought to my poor nephew throwing up last weekend.  I started to feel like I was going to throw up.  I was shaking and was majorly nauseated.  I thought I might be getting sick again, like I was at the beginning of June.  I threw up.  Fell asleep and woke up at around 11am perfectly fine.

I wondered, was it something I ate?  No, everybody else was fine and I had what they?d had.

I wondered if I WAS going to have diabetes after all.  Nah.  Those symptoms are much different.

Poking around the internet I found that the symptoms I?d had were of something I am very familiar with.  Something that plagues more than one family member, and rather is something I should have expected I would experience at some time in my life.

I think I had a panic attack.

I never want to take meds ? aside from the stigma attached to ANXIETY meds (which doesn?t really concern me ? I have lots of other stigmas attached to me, what?s one more to drag around?) I do not want something mellowing me all out?taking away my edge and my creativity.  At the same time, I cannot IMAGINE having something like that happen on a regular basis.

I have no idea if that?s what it was?but I reckon I ought to see the doc about it.
