I almost die today!

[potsNpans]

Hell, dieing isn't so bad. It's not drinking(alcohol), smoking, and indulging your tastes that sucks. Loosen up the thong briefs by the way for better circulation.
On a serious note, I do hope for your strength and health, and a long life for you with your family.

I wOke up 3:30 in the morning. Something was wrong with me. My chest was hurting and no feeling on left arm.  My god, I was having a heart attack!  Got to the hospital, and rush me to the surgery. One of my arteries was 100% blocked.  This sucks! I am 37, do not drink, smoke, I eat healthy and run.  So I will be away for a while.

Holy toejam. I had a diabetic coma (low blood sugar) that my wife caught when we were first married (25) - that was an interesting night waking up surrounded by 5 male medics who saw it medically necessary to have my bellybutton butt naked.

Glad it was caught and you're still with us

In my 19 years I've noticed the diabetics are usually naked before we get there.

Listen up guys...  My ex wife nurse told me this.

If you feel like you're having a heart attack bury your chin into your chest and cough hard,   like you're trying to dislodge something.  I guess this can get things pumping again.

thought you should know.

I am glad you woke up in time to take action and they were able to do something for you, Oak.  Take care man, get better sir! <S>

and fighting mad. well not really mad but definitely fighting.

Glad you not only caught but recognized that there was a serious problem and soon enough for them to keep you around a little longer. The single most important thing to save your life is recognition without it all the fancy meds and tests and procedures are worthless.

Hopefully you make a quick and full recovery.

Glad ur ok man!! keep in shape.

[Ctrl]

Glad to hear everything is alright.

Im surprised your heart was ballsy enough to attack you 

Take it easy 

[SCTusk]

Bit of a worry that oakranger, like flying over the ocean after hearing the engine miss a few beats. I have an encouraging story though, father-in-law in his fifties had two heart attacks and lost his job. Started up a lawn mowing business, never really took off as a major source of income but it got him walking and kept him fit. Five years later a full set of heart scans showed no damage as if he'd never had an attack. Doctors couldn't believe it. Seems the body can repair almost anything if you treat it right.

Good luck to you 

[captain1ma]

Jesus OAK, good luck and best wishes. take care of yourself! who am i gonna get sea sick from now? 

[pervert]

Hope thats the first and last occurance Oak your too young for that 

[pipz]

Get well Oakranger.

I feel for ya bud.  I have a Bicardial Arrythmea.  The first thump in the heartbeat is perfect but the second one goes off, 8 to 10 beats for every one of the first.  I was a pro motorcycle roadracer for many years, then at 50 years old (4 years ago) I had a bad crash that severed my little finger.  While they were preparing me for transport, because I was 50 it was standard practice to hook me up to a heart machine.  I remember very clearly the medic attending me yelling at the driver "Step on it man, they should have called a helicopter for this guy, I'm losing him".  My racing license was subsequently pulled and I had to retire, finally, I was planning on racing forever, hell, I had won a race the year before!

Now I must avoid all vices and avoid stress or I get trasient moments, 10 or 20 seconds long.  Yes, I get so immursed in our wonderful world of Aces high that it does happen while playing.  I just hit auto pilot, sit back and let it pass.  Don't tell my wife.

What I have is far from being a heart attack so you need to pay attention and follow your doctors orders.  Don't tell him about Aces High
