Randomly Passed Out. No Convulsions. Felt Outrageously, Uncomfortably Stoned. Recommendations
Hello! 26 yo female. Last night I randomly passed out. I also wet myself. My boyfriend said when this happened, I had my eyes open and wasn't responding to him. There were no convulsions. I had eaten 3 hours before that, wasn t feeling dehydrated, and I wasn't particularly hot. All of the sudden I felt outrageously, uncomfortably stoned and within 15 seconds passed out. When I came to 30 second later, I felt fine. This is the first time this has ever happened. Thanks!

Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Based on your symptoms, you seem to have suffered a generalized seizure (an epileptic attack).
You would require evaluation by a neurologist and investigations such as MRI brain and EEG to confirm the same. Then, treatment would consist of anti epileptic drugs.
Please get back if you require any additional information.

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
This is seizure (epilepsy)
You should see a Neurologist
You need physical examination and EEG; probably also MRI of the brain on view of the onset at this age...
You need regular medications / it can be managed well
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
