redstripe Posted December 29, 2016 Report Share Posted December 29, 2016 Big Party at the house. Went to bed around 2am. After about 20 coronas 5 orange crushes etc.. Woke up 4am freaking out felt claustrophobic chest pains shortness of breath. Wandered around out back, finally got in hot tub to relax , then slept 5 hours Waited until Tuesday morning finally wife and kids said lets go .. Off to emergency room. Blood pressure 198/102 super high Stress test nuclear imaging ,feeling claustrophobic with that camera 2 inches from your face,for 2 15 minute sessions unreal. . While on tread mill blood pressure spiked to 230/110 doctor stopped and said he has never seen that high spike. . long story short havent slept since just got home, Needed to sit down and write something to chill out. I was 100 percent sure I was heading to get stents or worse..Now I have to take cholesterol medicine high blood pressure medicine and 1 aspirin everyday. Time to quit the smokes and exercise more...And eat healthier. Being owner of business just stopped working in the field and riding to jobs meeting with customers =no exercise,for last 5 years. Nothing like having your 2 kids see their father that was always the strong one in family laying in hospital bed helpless and stressed. Well just grateful to be here.. Carry on.

spankie Posted December 29, 2016 Report Share Posted December 29, 2016 Good luck on the healthy road. I'd blame Kinger for taking away Tuesday night Poker. It depressed me about 15% more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
