Welcome To Bgoat's Tennessee Fainting Goat Page!!
Welcome To Bgoat's Tennessee fainting Goat Page!! Welcome to the world of the Tennesseefainting Goat! It is a world of legends born in American folklore.
http://www.angelfire.com/tx/bgoat/

Extractions: The origins of the Fainting Goat can best be traced to the hills of Tennessee and the County of Marshall. It was here that a drifter named Tinsley arrived in about the year 1880. We can't really say who Tinsley was, but we can, of course, speculate. There can be little doubt that the hills of Tennessee were fertile hunting grounds for the infamous Medicine Men of the day, perhaps Tensley belonged to this group. We can imagine his sales pitch: Then he might have paraded out one of the fainting goats for the towns' people to see. The people would quite naturally have been astonished at the stiffness the animal exhibited but, once given his wondrous tonic, the goat seemed to heal right in front of everyone ! The townspeople, unaware that the stiffness in these goats last only a few seconds, may have, quite naturally believed they had just witnessed a miracle of science. Which of course, they would purchase. Perhaps he was a simple traveling salesman. Yet if he was, what was he selling ? He did not sell his goats until he had been in the area of Marshall county for a while. In fact, he married and seemed to have s settled down, he took the time to work a farm. He soon tired of the life of a farmer. Tinsley sold his goats to a man named Mayberry and left his wife and his farm. He did however, take his "sacred cow" with him. Yes, he also traveled with a cow named Zebu that was considered sacred. We don't know if the cow possessed the ability to faint. We never hear of Tinsley or Zebu again.

http://atoz.iqhealth.com/HealthAnswers/encyclopedia/HTMLfiles/3086.html

Extractions: When there is not enough blood flow to the brain, passing out protects the brain from damage. People who faint generally lose muscle tone and fall to the ground. When someone is lying on the ground, the blood being pumped out of the heart doesn't have to fight gravity to get to the brain. Those who faint have a relaxed body, which uses less energy. This also makes it easier for the heart to pump blood to the brain. A person who faints usually becomes quite pale and may sweat heavily. The individual may be nauseated. Most people who pass out wake up in less than 2 minutes. There are several things a healthcare provider may want to know after a person has fainted, such as: how long the person was unconscious how quickly the person felt normal again after waking up what position the person was in before fainting whether the person felt dizzy or light-headed before passing out whether the person has fainted before whether there was any strong emotion, pain, or

http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/story.hts/metropolitan/hale/1462193

Extractions: June 19, 2002, 6:37PM Let's see what's been in the mail from the customers lately. Burl Caudle of Conroe writes to ask if I've ever done a story here on Old Rip, the horned frog that lived 31 years without food, water or ventilation in the cornerstone of the Eastland County Courthouse. No, I've always thought that creature gets plenty of notoriety without my help. The city of Eastland, 90 miles west of Fort Worth on Interstate 20, is the county seat of that county. It's also one of my old hometowns that I mention here sometimes. This is a nice little place and I love it dearly. Probably it deserves to be known for something other than that frog-in-the-cornerstone story but I doubt it ever will. When I was overseas during World War II I'd meet guys from a state like Pennsylvania, or maybe Oregon, and tell them I was from Eastland, Texas, and they'd say, "Isn't that the town where the frog lived for years sealed in a cornerstone?"

Extractions: If a person is feeling faint, unconsciousness may be prevented by sitting with the head between the knees, as shown in the illustration above, or by lying flat with the legs raised. Illustration by Electronic Illustrators Group.) Fainting is loss of consciousness caused by a temporary lack of oxygen to the brain. Known by the medical term "syncope," fainting may be preceded by dizziness , nausea, or a feeling of extreme weakness. When a person faints, the loss of consciousness is brief. The person will wake up as soon as normal blood flow is restored to the brain. Blood flow is usually restored by lying flat for a short time. This position puts the head on the same level as the heart so that blood flows more easily to the brain. A fainting episode may be completely harmless and of no significance, but it can be a symptom of a serious underlying disorder. No matter how trivial it seems, a fainting episode should be treated as a medical emergency until the cause is determined. Extreme pain , fear, or stress may bring on fainting. This type of fainting is caused by overstimulation of the vagus nerve, a nerve connected to the brain that helps control breathing and circulation. In addition, a person who stands still or erect for too long may faint. This type of fainting occurs because blood pools in the leg veins, reducing the amount that is available for the heart to pump to the brain. This type of fainting is quite common in older people or those taking drugs to treat high blood pressure.

fainting Every Monday morning we seem to see a patient who faints on thesubway. The key is to recognize the feeling that precedes fainting .
http://www.yafferuden.com/html/fainting.html

Extractions: Every Monday morning we seem to see a patient who faints on the subway. It always seems to be a healthy young person, usually a woman, with low blood pressure. Fainting is actually a protective device that the body uses to protect the brain from inadequate blood flow . Many things can cause the blood pressure to dropa warm room, alcohol, not eating, pain, dehydration from not drinking enough fluids, being out in the sun, sunburn, fever, fluid loss from diarrhea or vomiting, or getting up at night to urinate . In addition, the site of blood, an emotional response to news, or even the response to blood drawing can cause a drop in blood pressure. This is called a vaso-vagal response If an individual feels lightheaded , like one might faint, the body is sending a signal that there is not enough blood flow to the brain. This is a signal for you to make it easier to get blood to the brain! Lay down, or at least put your head and your heart at the same height so that the heart does not have to pump against gravity! It is better to lie down on the floor of a subway than it is to faint on a subway! It may take 45 minutes before the body resets itself after a vaso-vagal episode. Stay down.
Fainting And Unconsciousness

http://webits3.appstate.edu/apples/health/Fainting/fainting.htm

Extractions: Fainting occurs when not enough blood flows to the brain. Fainting and unconsciousness may have many causes, some minor, and some life-threatening. Usually a person who has fainted wakes up within a few minutes. POSSIBLE CAUSES: fear, pain, extreme fatigue, injury, low blood pressure, anemia, low blood sugar, dehydration, some drugs and medications, standing up too quickly, straining from constipation or severe coughing, irregular heart rhythms, blockage of the arteries, fluid in the lungs, blood clot in the lung. PREVENTION depends on an accurate diagnosis of the cause. If you feel faint, lie down or sit down. This helps increase the blood flow to the brain. FIRST AID: If the person is not breathing and has no pulse , the person needs CPR. It is probably a heart attack. Call 911 immediately. For simple fainting (constriction of the blood flow to the brain,) make sure the person is lying down with legs and feet elevated. (Don't move the person if you think there may be a spinal injury. Loosen belts and collars. Often a person will vomit. Make sure the airway is not constricted. Keep the person warm and lying down for at least ten minutes. Then sit in a chair a few minutes. Then stand up slowly. If the person stands up too quickly, the person may faint again. This may be all that's needed.
