"Green Out"?

Saturday, April 21:  Abby had a bday party to attend in Hemet.  Before heading down, ate a small piece of "chocolate", and we go to Lemongrass for dinner.   Halfway thru, I start feeling a heaviness in my left chest, like my boobs were hurting.  I think, I hope I don't have another stroke  or heart attack.  Something wasn't right.  We order our second bottle of beer to share.  I start feeling light headed and things start going white.  I step outside to get some fresh air.  And pass out. I remember trying to move my legs but they wouldn't, I can hear the people around me, should we call 911?  I barely sit up somehow. Then David's there. I come to, was able to stand up but faint again after a few steps. He carries me to the car.  Some lady asked if he needed help.  He says something like, I'm gonna get down and dirty, as he hoists me over his shoulder.  Apparently my eyes rolled back.  Next few hours, sitting in the car, my body feels super heavy and I can't lift my arms.  This came in waves till I went to bed.  It was really weird, my mind seemed fully conscious but my body wasn't.  They said edibles react differently to alcohol as it is absorbed thru the stomach and liver, not inhaled thru the lungs.  This could cause chest pain, low blood pressure, intense desire to lie down.  After getting in the car, heart rate was 65, which is the lowest I can remember.  I'm guessing either heart rate or blood pressure dropped low enough for me to pass out.   Pretty scary shit.  But glad I didn't have a stroke or end up in the hospital.
