I just got a electric shock... very scared!!?

This morning, I got shocked from a metal spatula touching the pan!! It was a weird feeling at first.. and it didn't occur to me that it was a shock from the stove through the pan through the spatula to me!! I reacted really quickly at first to the thing and it was one of those automatic pullbacks... and then I was stupid, because I didn't know I just got shocked.. I tried to flip my omelette again using the metal spatula.. and the second time, I noticed a weird sensation.. like a buzz.. but a really big noticeable buzz going through my arms.. it was SOOO WEIRD and really scary, I'm not sure if I withdrew my arm back fast that time.. I was too caught up in what just happened, so I didn't notice... but it scared the bajeebus out of me.. Am I going to die from the electric shock??? Oh.. and are stoves suppose to let out smoke from the ring things?? And has anyone experienced this "buzz" like shock??

An electric shock (depending on the voltage) isn't anything to worry about. I lost count of how many times I had 12 volts running through me while I worked on electrical equipment. I would only worry if you got too bored and decided to start sticking a cord in your mouth. I've seen a few idiots pass out from that. The smoke is either from whatever was dropped or
it could be the burner is about to quit.

no you wont die .... either it was just a part of the voltage or you are immune to normal mains voltage like i am

Your probably won't die. the worst you might cause you to get an irregular heart beat if it was strong enough. i would consult your doctor. just call them and ask.

Hahah yess i know exactly that feeling. You have no need to worry though it was probably a low shock. Not a good feeling

you wont die this time dont use the stove til its checked out.. It may be a fire hazzard...

The best thing to do is calm down. I had that happen to me, except my hands were wet, and i was plugging in a water fountain at the pool. This happened a couple years ago. Don't worry about it, just make sure you feel ok, and aren't having any unusual side effects like rashes. If you are really worried, talk to the doctor, they would be glad to check on it.

If you are ok now, you are probably going to be fine. the only thing is if you already have a weak heart, it may not have been good for it. The only way the doc could really check your heart is to give you a stress test. Kind of like doing push ups to see if you are really having a heart attack... Just take it easy and if you feel any heart attack symptoms when you exert yourself physically, go get checked by the doc.
AND I HOPE YOU ALREADY THREW OUT THAT STOVE!

OK Buddy, if you are under 18 tell your parents what happened. Electrical shocks can damage your heart. You may feel okay now, but later today you could have a heart attack (seriously).

If you are over 18, please call your doctor and tell him/her what happened.

The "ring things" are called "eyes" ... don't ask me why. Sometimes they do smoke - IF there is food dried on there from a previous cooking episode. However ... based on what you've described - that doesn't sound like what happened.

It sounds like your stove has developed a short in it somewhere.

If you live in an apartment - call the office for an emergency maintenance appointment. If the office is closed, you should have an emergency number to call. This needs to be taken care off immediately.

If you live in a home - and are responsible for your own home maintenance:
Find your circuit breaker box. Find the switch that powers the kitchen appliances, and turn it off. If you need to, turn off all the switches (NOTE: this will cut power to everything in your house, including your computer.)

Then call the fire department and let them know what has happened. Tell them you suspect an electrical short somewhere to or within your stove, and you would like to have it checked out and make sure no other appliances or whatever in your home/apartment are "hot." They'll let you know what to do from there.

You won't die unless you hang on and don't let go.

Sounds like you have a short in the stove. Get someone to look at it ASAP.

Its called static discharge, you won't die.

This happens occasionally when handling conductors of electricity, such as metal (pots; pans; stove). If you don't want to experience this again, I would suggest holding a conductor before using the ones that you will be handling.
