Former wrestler details her very close call

Torrie Wilson, the former WWE diva who now runs a clothing store called Jaded in The Woodlands, scared the pants off her fans last week by tweeting …
“Big scare for me tonight. I was in the emergency room. Thought I was heading up to Heaven for a minute there. Thanks for letting me stay a little longer, Jesus!”
That's all she wrote.
Here's what actually happened that night.
She was visiting her brother in San Diego when …
“I had a bad reaction to medicine because of a thyroid problem I have had for years, and my heart was starting to shut down on me. This was combined with the newfound discovery that I have an abnormally slow heartbeat. By the time I reluctantly went to the doctor, I was rushed to the emergency room with numb arms and legs and blue hands. I was extremely dizzy and nauseous. I still didn't take this seriously until the doctor started freaking out on me,” Wilson said.
“I had a horribly close call, and I'm ashamed to admit that I ‘Twittered' about it hours after I was out of the hospital because I was so flabbergasted at what happened! I guess I forgot how many people actually pay attention to me,” Wilson said.
I believe the proper word would be “Tweeted.”
She continued. “I was not taking prescription pain pills and anything crazy — like the Internet rumors said. It's horrifying that all those crazy people accuse me of that just because I used to be a wrestler. Who knows what would have happened if I didn't go to the emergency room? It's a scary thought. My heart rate was 30 per minute and slowing when I finally got help. I will never take medication without doing research on possible adverse reactions. In a nutshell, that's what happened.”
