Last night I had my ears pierced. I hate needles, but I didn't feel nervous at all. I don't really think that's why I fainted. I was only out for a few seconds, but it was really hot. And we checked my blood pressure, it was 100 over 60. Is that normal? I'm fifteen. Is it enough to worry about? thanks!

It's the first time I've ever fainted in my life.

It didn't hurt at all when they pierced them, and I was perfectly fine for the about five minutes until I started feeling hot.

It sounds like you had a vasovagal reaction, which is a pretty common reaction, often happens when people have blood drawn, or sometimes when they experience painful thinks like having your ears pierced. You probably did drop your blood pressure for a moment or two, but it would have come back quickly, did you feel anything before or after you passed out?
If this is the first time it's ever happened and you don't have any repeats, I would probably just leave it alone but remember that it's something that has happened in certain situations. If this sort of thing keeps happening, then you should definately see your doctor and get it worked up.

I think you will be fine. I used to get that way around needles. I never fainted but came close. Now I have no problems even donating blood. Needles don't bother me.
blood pressure should be

Normal less than 120 and less than 80

see your fine

Any line, even a faint one is a optimistic, it simply approach the experiment has best picked up a small quantity of the being pregnant hormone, you'll be able to get many fake bad outcome, however best very very hardly ever do you get a fake optimistic. take one more one if you do not consider it and ensure you utilize the primary urine you move whilst you get up within the morning, the hormones are extra focused then. Good good fortune.

You probably felt faint due to the stress occuring in your body on a molecular level.

Go with what "The Doc" said. I could not have phrased it better myself. Of course I am also not a doctor.
