Can you give us details of what coworkers may have told you that you did?


Had my first day around them today, they said I was really pale, made a sound of some short then went straight down and was convulsing for around two minutes. Co-workers that have seen seizures said it was serious but they've seen worse. They said it sounded briefly like I was snoring but it was more likely me choking on my spit before they turned me on my side and braced my head. I slowly came to and it was a bit before I was aware, like a concussion, which I've had at least 2 of in the past.

If you were convulsing for 2 minutes then yea that does sound like a seizure. I will say people usually think it lasted longer than it did. When we go out in public we will have people that say someone seized for 2-3 minutes and then someone else who’s a nurse or in medical field many times will come up and say it lasted 5-10 seconds. People do convulse sometimes when they pass out but it’s usually just a few seconds. Like others have said, go see a doctor.
