I was waiting for the bus to work this morning and started feeling faint - vision blurry round the edges, muzzy brain, hot and sweaty - and I was thinking I need to sit down, even if it's wet and the bus arrived.

I was going to get my wallet out to get my bus ticket and the next thing I know the bus driver and his trainee were pulling me out of a hedge and over a railing. 

I fainted again on the bus and again when the ambulance people came. My blood pressure was so low they couldn't get a reading until the fifth attempt. My blood sugar was fine, just my blood pressure was really low.

It took five hours and two bags of fluids to get the top number over 100. I'm not sure what caused it, I felt fine until I was waiting for the bus. 

I'm home now, feel a bit ropey, slept for a few hours, had some more toast and now I'm going back to sleep.
