Yes.

Carole Avoine · 1:31:58

So in mid-June, I tried to go to the washroom to pee, and as I was peeing, I noticed that something was wrong. So I knew that I was bleeding. And how long had you been menopausal? I had been menopausal for 7 years. So that experience was very strange because when I noticed that something was happening, I tried to get up to see the color of what was in the toilet, and I, I tried to get up and lean on the counter, and my legs gave out, and I started screaming, what's happening, what's happening? And the person I lived with entered the washroom, and I said, I'm going to pass out. So She helped me lie down, so I won't tell you— I'll spare you the details because, you know, my panties were off and I was on the floor.

So she helped me lie down, and as I laid down, I felt myself lose consciousness. But I did not lose consciousness, but nothing was working. I couldn't see anything. My body was shaking, and in my head I was screaming like, what's happening, what's happening? But I couldn't talk, and it was terrifying. And when I came to, I laid down because I felt exhausted. And I get, I get vagus reactions. I've had that before, and I know what happens. I know that I, I will pass out, but I had a similar symptom but while fully conscious. And how long did you keep bleeding for? I bled for 2 weeks, 2 weeks non-stop. And were they like a normal period? So what, what was the difference? So it was just a, it was just a vivid red, it was just vivid red blood.
