Did you "zone out" and have a lapse of time for a brief moment?

It could have been a very mild seizure, aura or similar. If you have had similar episodes where you zone out, or lost track or time when listening to the radio or TV that could be a good indication.

Before you ask, YES people can still be walking and upright when these occur and unaware of the seizures.

Thats why I ask if you noted it when listening to music,radio,news,video, etc... Something where a lapse would be noticed due to missing content.

Lady Blue i think you may have something wrong with your pancreas.The pancreas controlls the levels of insulin within your blood and it sounds as though you are experienceing the opposite symptoms to to a diabetic. You zone out, can be perceived as being drunk etc. Go to a Doc and ask for a check up on your blood sugars, i believe your pancreas is producing too much insulin.
I hope this helps. Be carefull not to drive..

I'd speak to your regular doctor first and describe your symptoms. He or she will probably want to run some bloodwork. If that comes back good, you'll likely be sent to a neurologist for an EEG and scans. It's important that you get to the bottom of this. Please keep us posted.
