Probably a seizure John.
I had a seizure about 2 1/2 mths. ago and i was unconcious for about an hour and a half, it was amazing what my friends told me what had happened.
I had that same memory lapse thing you were talking about.
Coincidentally John, im a cyclist too, not professionally but i've entered road races across the island as well. Not saying that there is any relationship with what you're talking about but just thought i'd mention it.
You should really consider researching more info on the prozac, or the generic one for that matter to see if you're allergic to it. Many prescriptions have side effects and as the previous reply stated, it might be lowering your seizure threshold. Consider the energy drink you were using at the time on the trainer or roller / Have you been eating anything differently? / Has your diet changed? ask yourself things like that and im sure you will get an answer.
As they told me when i had my seizure, "This may be the only one you have for the rest of your life", so i tell you..
Don't worry about anything and GOOD LUCK...

Sounds like a seizure to me. This could be a once in a lifetime thing and never happen again!Some things may be worth investigating.You should investigate the prozac thing, it could be lowering your seizure threshold. Are you taking any suppliments? They could be causing grief in combination with the prozac.Do you use aspertame as a sweetner? It could be that you are sensitive to it.
