Syncopy & Infection: The syncopy may be due to the blood draw but the sore throat and other symptoms are likely due to an infection. See your primary care urgently to get started on appropriate care.

Vasovagal: It's really very common for folks to have a vasovagal spell with blood drawing. This is a reflex and not indicative of disease. The zits and sore throat are separate issues. Viral syndrome? (have you had measles?).
