This happend to me once before a couple years back and I ended up in the ER. This time it happens shortly after dinner, came home from work noticed some bacon in the fridge so I ate it. About 20 min later I get chest pains and dizziness, all of a sudden I can't feel my body and start falling. I told my girl I don't feel good and I might pass out. She said I then laid on the bed and it looked like I was sneeezing. I don't remember the sneezing part but this shit is really scary. I hope I don't have a serious illness like heart disease. I felt super hot after being dizzy and I noticed laying Down calmed the affects. The time I went to the ER and they kept me over night they couldn't find anything wrong with me which is weird because I nearly flatlined shortly after entering the ER . Is there a doctor in the forums that might be able to tell me what's wrong? I have kids and am way too young to die .

I'm actually more fit than I have ever been in my life. Well atleast I thought I was . I have some sour diesel and bubba kush but am a bit scared to blaze.

The sneezing thing sounds like a seizure. Yeah I'd avoid bacon and hope it doesn't happen again. My uncle had a similar experience with Mountain Dew, and he used to drink like 3-4 liters a day then suddenly started having episodes like that when he did. Sometimes the human body is a weird thing. It could be a Nitrite reaction, google that and see, sodium nitrite is used in bacon as well as hotdogs and some sausage. If that's the case you can check the labels and try to get the ones without it. See what the additives are in the bacon you got. It's morel likely one of the chemical additives than anything else, but I'd go to a doctor, it sounds like you went into anaphylactic shock.

i cooked some bacon that didn't look right in the pan. i am very food conscious so i didn't eat it but my bf is stubborn and insisted it was fine.

welp, he ate it and it sent him to the toilet about 10x a day for 2 days. be careful of pork. if someone says it looks "off" it's probably off!!

Ya maybe you've developed a reaction to bacon. It sounds like you haven't had any in a while, maybe it was some super high potncey bacon and you had an o.d?

I think I ate bacon 3 days in a row and usually I only have it about once a month. Traumatized now not sure if I can eat bacon ever again.

Mehhhhh, if pork is off it is green, or it is incredibly sticky and smells like shite. I blame the cook for not cooking it right :p
