Happens to me too...

when the pain gets to a certain level (like a 50 on a scale of 1 to 10) the world goes gray, then black, and I pass out. I've fainted in mid-stride trying to make it to the bathroom and come to on the floor. Not often, but it's happened.

Docs just wrote this off as something associated with the pain. Uh, if the pain is that bad shouldn't they maybe be worried about helping me with it? That wasn't the case, unfortunately. But I guess it helps to know that it's "just" blacking out from the pain, as opposed to a brain tumor or some such.
