Health..Don't take it for Granted Have you ever lost consciousness and passed out? I have...4 times. It is one of the most scary things that have happened to me. Each time I passed out, it was because I had overexerted myself (like taking 4 finals and working 40 hours during the same week), not eaten, or had been stressed out. The last time I passed out, I was shopping with my mother. I had just wrote a check for some clothes, when the next thing I knew, I was in a stretcher with an oxygen mask over my mouth and nose. It was so embarrassing. I was taken to the hospital for tests and observations. After a couple hours, I was sent home with a list of follow-up appointments. Over the next 3 months, many tests were performed on me. After all the tests were completed, the doctors told me that I had Iron Deficient Anemia and that I should eat healthier and take care of myself better. Luckily for me, nothing serious was wrong. Your health should not be taken for granted. Don't wait until something bad happens before you begin to live a healthier life. Start now! ---EFusion
