I was at the doctors office getting ready to have bloodwork done.The nurse was checking my arm for good vaine to poke I got a little nervuos thinkin about blood and the nurse dicided not to draw blood and to send me to other doc, on the way out of the room I started feeling sick then I got dizzy started to black out. it only lasted about 5 mins the doctor said my face got really white and I started to panic. Sad thing was I never even got blood drawn.

Was this a anxiety attack?

You went into shock. I do that very easily too. It's a normal reaction to injury - the blood pressure drops and you go white and feel faint and slightly sick. The best thing to do is to lie on the floor until it passes enough to move around. I do it from quite minor injury and your body has done it in anticipation.
