cata what?

Posted by -O- on July 04, 2001 at 00:40:04:

Hello everyone,

I have a quick question about cataplexy. The other evening at a dinner with some friends two of us started to play off each others sarcasiym and I was busting up laughing. I all of a sudden out of nowhere felt dizzy and weak. I never lost control of function but felt very tired and sick. It followed with a extreme headache (usually followed this time too, with my eyes wanting to automatically close) I never have had a true cata attack, (with loss of all function) Is this a start to that? Or nothing at all to be concerned with? I do get weak and shortnes of breath. (usually foolowing emotion memories and anxiety attack. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Sleep well, and travel far into your dreams.

Ps Rip you out there?
