Today was really scary. l was standing up having a conversation with my mom when l began to have some unusual symptoms. l started to feel extremely hot and sweaty, as well as weak. Next l started to see spots and pretty soon my vision was completely blurry. My mom had me lay and and put a pillow under my feet. l was not sure if the reason why l almost fainted was related to my period or to dehydration. l had not drank anything at all for over 12 hours, which was stupid and l normally do not do that. But also, l had just started my period the night before and was experiencing the worst cramps l ever felt and the pain was intolerable. So the questions l have are: Why did l almost faint? Was is because l did not drink enough, from the menstrual pain, or both? Also, is this something l should seek medical attention about?
