Wow. No wonder it took so long to heal. It was an injury on top of an injury over and over again. Shame it must have been very painful.A year ago I suddenly started fainting. I went down 4 times in a week.
The first time I was in the shower. When I fell I hit the little bypass thingy that you pull up to make the water go up to the shower head.
After laying there a minute or two, I realized I hadn't rinsed my hair. The bright thing to do was stay down and just put my head under the faucet. At that moment, I was not bright. I stood up, rinsed my hair, and promptly passed out again, hitting the same pullup thing at the same spot on my arm.
A week later I went down and crunched my head on the floor tile and sprained my ankle.
Spent 2 days in the hospital. The reason was that unexplicably my blood pressure was suddenly MUCH lower than ever before. Went from 40 mg daily to 5 mg of my BP med. Been fine since.
