Ever Been Punched To Unconsciousness or Near?

[AngelaG]

I have been accidently knocked out a couple of times, but from a strike to the back of the head (GB 20 to all who are interested in PPs). The second time it happened I was out cold for quite a while, I've had a couple of light KOs as well but although I have gone down to the floor I have still been vaguely conscious. I am very sensitive to Gallbladder Meridian strikes - almost stupidly so.

Angela G,

 

Was that in competition or street fight?

 

Although it really does matter per my post.

 

And, according to others, and myself, some people have a different "awakening sensation-what was yours?

 

BTW-thanks for your reply

The time I got completely knocked out it was training at a seminar. (First seminar I had ever been to as well). We'd been training all weekend and we were all pretty tired, it was getting towards the end of the day and my partner was a friend. I think he started to relax which made the technique even worse. He caught me dead on GB20 so it was an 'electrical knockout' rather than a hard punching style one. Interestingly (possibly :lol) I find that when I get KOd it actually takes a while for me to go down. It's like my body shuts down bit by bit. The last time I got KOed was my grading because I somehow managed to fall headfirst onto my opponents heel . I got back up to carry on fighting, got back into yoi, he asked me if I was ok, I said yeah.... and then slowly collapsed into a heap on the floor.

 

I find I wake up fairly slowly and am quite woozy for a while, and I have a pounding headache for the rest of the day, I may also feel nauseous. I also find my concentration span will be shot and I find it hard to complete whole sentences. Later on at night I'll often wake up with a racing heart, sweats and an irrational fear such as that someone is in my room. Byt he next day my body is back in synch and I have no more problems.

I can't say whether I would have gone down in a stress situation for sure, would adrenaline have kept me going?? I really have no answer to that. My respiration was fine.

My instructor is trained in Reiki and is adept at bringing people around after energetic KOs. He also has modern First Aid training, so I trust that he can handle situations like that competantly.

 

The first time it happened there were several people who knew what to do.

[47MartialMan]

So did he help you and have you learned what he had done?

Well I will be taking part in a first aid course soon. And I would love to do reiki, but it's finding the time.
