Today didn't go well.  The phlebotomy went as expected but afterwards I had a problem.  With my wife sitting there I told the nurse that i wasn't feeling to hot and that was all she wrote.  I was told that my eyes rolled back and layed there white as a sheet.  I was out for about 30  seconds with my wife and 2 nurses shouting at me.   My wife said that I scared the hell out of her.   She doesn't want to go with me again.

My big ole brother, who had to do all sorts of things in Viet Nam, passes out when he gets a shot or anything like that. Is that the sort of thing that happened to you, is it the MS, or is it something else? It is scary to see someone pass out, even if the person is 91. I was alone with my mom when it happened, but fortunately, I turned into a machine and was able to take care of things. I know it was scary for your wife, but I hope she goes with you in the future. After all, it must have been scary for you, too. Take care!
