when you die from blood loss, do you feel like you are dying from not being able to breathe? Because your lungs are breathing but you’re not getting oxygen where it needs to go, would it feel something like suffocating?

I lost 2 pints after a hemorrhage, I lost consciousness way before it got to that much and didn’t even know it was happening. I didn’t feel anything like pain or distress, I was just tired and closed my eyes and passed out and when I woke up there were a dozen doctor’s and nurses around me.

Quite honestly I think it’s probably a nice way to go, very peaceful. Assuming you are already totally numb to the cause of the blood loss like I was from the epidural and not caused by some horrific injury.
