So, here how it was.
It was -3C, strong wind, anyhow I'm cleaning car from snow...quite a lot of snow. I don't feel cold at all, cause I'm wearing a polar jacket...never felt cold even on -10. Was walking for 15 mins before that, not shivering at all or felling cold or anything.
My one foot was for some time in deep snow and I felt it being unpleasantly cold, but after 2 mins when I walked around a bit - it was ok.
After some cleaning I realize my hand is painfully cold and numbish...ok I put in my pocket, after 15s everything's fine. I continue cleaning...not feeling cold at all. Everything's cool. I walk away to return the broom, on the way there I realize that my hand is still a bit numb tho on touch it itches/burns like it was still freezing. Ok, still all is cool.
I return to the car, woah - I feel nausea's. What ever - didn't eat anything for breakfast. Seconds after I start feeling light headed. Seconds after my sight becomes blurry, seconds later my hearing reduces and becomes more "inner hearing of silence", and dizziness - up to the moment I needed to sit down a bit.
And I rarely do that - say "i feel bad/Im not feeling good", most things I pass "on the feet".
After 20-30s everything goes back to normal, with difference that I feel like I'm on a tropical Island - even tho I just set down in ice cold car I was about to remove my jacket considering how warm I felt. Ofc I knew it was only temporary so I didn't do it.
So what was that all about?
It looks like hypothermia, well start of it...but is it possible from only freezing the hand???
The sensation of itching/burning when touched was present for next few hrs on top of the fingers but it completely faded in one moment.
Anyone has a clue what happened there?
I only fainted from getting hit by a stone block in head, for 5 minutes and not a single other time.
