    WELL. That sure is FUCKIN GREEAT.

    Alright. Last week while I was at work, the left side of my body went numb, I saw stars off and on, and I had a lot of problems breathing.

    Yesterday I was talking with people, the medical kind.

    I was led to believe I had a mild heart attack.

    I eat healthy, have a healthy lifestyle, etc etc.

    I am younger then a LARGE portion of the members, and my heart is failing.

    On another note, the medication I have been on for the past two and a half years for undisclosed reasons, has been rotting the neurons in my brain, preventing them from working properly, thus messages not being sent. The damage may not be permanent.

    They are taking me off the meds right now, I tell ya, I feel like I am about to die.

    And on another note, my ankle got caught in a hydraulic press today. Thankfully I yelled loud enough, the girl stopped the machine. So it has only swelled up to the size of the Vatican right now.


    So if any of you are having a bad day, or think your not having such a great time, or life, think again.

      that sucks. have you thought about going herbal?

      darn those side effects, kinda makes you really think hard which is worse? the side effects from the med (like nose bleed, the shits, gas, burning itching sensation, instant death, obesity) or what ever that med is suppose to treat.

      i may be only 25 but i'm on Lipitor for high cholesterol, lisinopril for high blood pressure and prednisone for nephritis of the kidney(i forget how to spell the plural form). but being on that prednisone has the side effect of lowering my immune system after prolong usage which i've noticed over the past year and a half of being on it. i've been getting sick a lot more compared to when i was younger.

        Damn that is messed up.

        I may only be 21 but I already have a minor case of arthritis in my knees and ankles, which confuses a lot of people when they hear that since I am only 5'9" and weigh like 120lbs. So far no medication besides Tyelnol Extra Strength every day. Bad knees seems to run in my family, my grandmother has had both of her knees replaced, and my great grandmother also had knee problems.

        I can eat anything I want to now and not gain a pound but, I have to start watching more of what I eat. Being on the bigger side runs in my family also.

        Keep us posted on what you find out. Hopefully everything has been caught before it causes too much permanate damage. Keep your head up.


        EDIT: I got curious as to just how young you were when you said young.. Looks like your 21st Birthday is coming up real soon! So early Happy Birthday! Be safe and have a good time. Later

            There is no herbal medicine that could correct what the meds I am being taken off of do, sadly.

            I put a false date in there, I think my DV8 account had the real one.

            Aside from that, believe it or not, I am only 18. I turn 19 next week.



            Thank you for the concern, everyone. I am going to consult a cardiologist, as the MD I see only scratches the surface of these problems.

                        Most meds have side-effects. Hell, my father had his stomach rupture because of aspirin...

                        I know he doesn't wish to discuss the purpose of the meds, and that's understandable... but whatever they are, for whatever reason, they're probably for a condition that requires them, regardless of the side-effects.

                            hey man i hear ya... i have horrible scoliosis.

                            my spine has 2 curves - a top one (51 degrees) and a bottom curve (52 degrees).
                            i cant stand up straight - i lean to the left and forward slightly, has my spine is also twisted. it throws off my balance, and makes my right leg be a centimeter longer than my left leg.

                            the only way to fix it: metal rods screwed into my spine. im fucking 16 and this summer they r putting fucking metal rods screwed into my spine. wtf it that? now a large number of jobs is ruled out for me, including my life long dream of being a mechanic...



                            hope everything works out for u vi descending, ill pray for you man...
