It just happened. No pain. I WAS lifting and going up stairs in our barn. after the second trip up I kind of thought geez I need to get in better shape I'm a little winded. Then my eyes felt funny and I was sweaty around my neck and in my hair. I think it was the funny feeling in my eyes and seeing flashers that made me want to find my husband (who normally would have been gone that morning, but we stopped and chatted a little. I went down the steps and called his name. When he got to me I was outside and sitting on a grappling bucket. I Began to vomit shortly later and he took me to the ER. I was transferred to Mayo.

I have read and heard several times that it 5.5 cm is cause for surgery
