I wondered where to post this. I had a hugely profound experience this weekend. I bashed my hand playing Wii, and off to the urgent care I went.
To make a long story short, I had a VERY adverse reaction to the lidocaine they were putting in my thumb...my wife says I turned a greenish-blue, and went limp, and started to convulse. She says that right before I came to, I had let out a "death rattle"...sort of a soft choking that comes from the gut...
What I experienced was well,...I am actually having trouble writing this. I get really emotional, and my heart rate skyrockets when I try to remember what happened.
I can only try to write what I felt:
I "saw" a series of very bright, vivid photographs -- some I recongnized as memories, others I did not. They flashed very quickly in front of me. And then I "felt my legs lifting out of wet Levi's". My arms as well, it felt like a wet jean jacket. I could hear my wife screaming, "Baby, come back"! It was a totally different pitch, it was very high. My wife's voice is not normally, or even abnormally a pitch like that. It was like I was hearing her voice from when she was a little girl. Anyways, more on this later. Anyone, please let me know what you think. Thanks
Edited for syntax.
