Well this isn't too good...

[Atty]

So for the last year or so I've had this off and on pain in my chest, directly at my heart. Every so often (like once or twice a week) it would give me a sort of flutter feel, where I could feel my heart beating abnormally (you know when you can actually feel your heart beating? Well for me, when it happens, I can feel it beat and then stop, then kick back in, like its skipping a beat but its causing a lot of pain and happening way to often) and it wasn't caused by anything, it would happen at the most random of times. Lately its been going on more and more often, just in the last few minutes of typing this it has happened twice, and its starting to feel bad, giving me pains and dizziness. I wasn't too worried about it but my mom saw me get dizzy and asked me what the problem was, being that she was a nurse when I told her she scheduled a Dr's appoint for me straight away, worried it could be something serious. I had my appointment today and the Doc didn't know what was causing it, he isn't sure if its something terribly serious or not, but I do have to have chest X-Ray, Electro Cardiogram (EKG), and a full blood work done, which all sucks. I'm not too worried about it but still, it could be something serious.

So yeah, this sucks. :(

[Con]

AIDS will do that fo shur

on a serious note, hope you don't need a pacemaker D:

[Atty]

AIDS will do that fo shur
If its aids then you, Korn, Neuro, WoL, Zeph, and Jcap are all at risk too. :(


And rossmum's mother. :-3

[Ki11a_FTW]

That happened to me once, a loonnngggg time ago.... turns out it was a functional heart murmor (already grew it out)

[Limited]

That sucks dude. Some people have an irregular heartbeat, but as your young it shouldnt be that much of a problem and you should grow out of it.

Does it happen only after exercise or is it a regular thing? and a serious question (I know I say stereo types alot) are you morbidly obese because that can have serious effects on your heart.

[Atty]

No, I'm in pretty good shape, and it happens when I've exercised and when I haven't, I could be laying on the couch watching a movie and it will happen or I could be coming in from running. I can't pin point any action that sets it off, it just happens.

[Boba]

If its aids then you, Korn, Neuro, WoL, Zeph, and Jcap are all at risk too. :(


And rossmum's mother. :-3

So I'm in the clear? :haw:

also I have a pain in my chest too, but its prolly cuz im a fatass

[Archon23]

Reminds me of the times I used to get these sharp pains in my chest. Actually until now I haven't noticed it stopped........

I took a break from stabbing you constantly.

[Ki11a_FTW]

I took a break from stabbing you constantly.

ha, also i had a pain in my chest like 2 months ago, but havent had one since(not in heart area)

[et_cg]

Oh gosh, Atty, I'm sorry to hear all about what's going on. It's weird though, sounds like a heart problem indeed. A very mysterious one. I have one in my mind right now, but I can't remember the name. Sounds very familiar to what's going on.

Thing like this tend to suck; I do hope all goes well and you don't have to experience these issues long term.

[Con]

My heart flutters sometimes..at least I think it does. Usually when I think about Atty <3

[rossmum]

I took a break from stabbing you constantly.
:lmao:


My heart flutters sometimes..at least I think it does. Usually when I think about Atty <3
Yeah, same here <3

Actually, I do get random chest pains, but I don't know if they're heart related or not. Usually only last a few seconds at a time.

[Teh Ganon]

I get like pinches very rarley... it pinches, then take a deep breath and im fine. (big pinch when you take the breath) I suppose taht is normal however.

[Neuro Guro]

[DaneO'Roo]

I get massive head pressure when going up altitudes or even just driving in the car and when I run I feel the inside of my head throbbing severely. It gets so bad it literally feels like my head is going to explode. No joke, it gets to the point of pain. I also get frequent migrains in the exact same place every time. Back of my head on the right side.

[rossmum]

Migraines suck. :|

[Roostervier]

D:

Sounds like something that was happening to me last year. I have no problems now, but I would feel my heart skip beats, or beat irregularly. This has actually been happening since the fourth grade for me, but less frequently now. Anyway, I'd get dizzy for no reason (though I tend to do that now, minus the chest pain) and have to sit down, stand still, or walk for a little to get it to wear off. Mine isn't really a problem though, so I hope yours isn't either.

[Bad Waffle]

If its aids then you, Korn, Neuro, WoL, Zeph, and Jcap are all at risk too. :(


And rossmum's mother. :-3

you know whats wierd, thats the first thought i conjured.

Dont worry, if its a pain in your chest, it could be growing pains in your joints near your sternum. Once i had an inflamed joint that was connecting my ribs to my sturnum, and if i breathed too hard after excercising/whatever it would cause the joint to become pressured, resulting in me collapsing in pain--like my entire chest was collapsing on my heart. Turns out all i had to do was take some medication for the inflamation, and stop exercising for a month or two as it healed.

[Snowy]

Hmm... This sounds familiar to something I've had... A few months ago, I was in Church, and I could feel my heart beating, but only for a few beats... then I started to feel a bit light headed, and hot... I passed out, and woke up a few seconds later feeling fine. It's weird, because if I take off my shirt, and look closely, I can see my heart actually beating through my chest. :eek:

[STLRamsFan]

That sucks dude, I hope you're ok at the end... Just curious, how is your diet and how much do you excerise if any?

[Atty]

I don't drink any sodas or coffee, not even energy drinks, I limit myself to water and lemonade, and those life/vitamin waters. As far as food goes I don't eat any fast food if I can help it (my first fast food in about 3 months was some Arbys while I was staying with a family member in the hospital, and even then it wasn't a terribly bad meal as far as fast food goes.) I keep a pretty healthy diet, I eat a lot of fruits and some veggies. The worst food I eat is stuff from our Deli at work, and even then its all pretty healthy and keep it to small amounts if its not. I'll also have the odd piece of cheese cake at home (my family always has some junk food in the house and sometimes you just can't say no) but I always consider what I've had before that day and what I'll be doing later, I try my best to stay away from oily and fatty foods.

My exercise is Crunches/Push ups nightly (well, at least 5 our of 7 days a week, some nights I just crash and forget), running when I can (on nights I don't work I go running for about 15 - 20 minutes), and I get a good work out at work because I'm on my feet for 6+ hours walking in and out of the store, working out side in the heat, and constantly in motion.

I acknowledge it could be something serious and am ready if it is but I'm not anticipating the worst. My family thinks its stress related because I don't exactly have the perfect life, but I don't know. I'm not going to jump to any conclusions right now. I'll wait for my chest x-ray (which I'm having on Friday), my EKG (to be scheduled), and my blood work (also Friday) to come back and see whats going on.

[Ki11a_FTW]

I wish the best of luck to you Atty.

[dg]

You probably just have an abnormal heart beat. My brother and I both have it. I started to notice it when sometimes I would breathe and there would be a sharp pain in my heart area. I could feel it struggle, but then get back to its rhythm.

It's not too bad of a thing to have. I do wrestling, ice hockey, and lacrosse; my doctor said I can still do them. One things however, if you ever need any type surgery, such as wisdom teeth removal, they have to sedate you to monitor your heart. It's pretty simple and easy, so don't worry too much.

[n00b1n8R]

I read the first line and already I was like "AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ANYONE??"

no seriously, shit like that you don't fuck with.
trust me.

trust me.The for the last year part? Well, I've been a bit busy. Between a constantly ill dying mother, ill Grandfather, and not in great health Grandmother I'm pretty busy, not really enough time to worry about myself. And as I said, only recently has it started happening often enough for me to become worried about it.

and that's a big problem. you let it get far enough that it's getting worse. things like that do not get better on their own. trust me, I fucking know and what I had wasn't as serious as my Heart ffs (don't as about that though..)

[Kornman00]

:words:

So yeah, this sucks. :(
Yeah, I get heart murmurs everynow and then, but never any real pain, so idk.

Needs moar kissy kissy, atty?

[Atty]

I've got a broken heart Korny, fix it for me. :(

[Kornman00]

I've got a broken heart Korny, fix it for me. :(
Oh fuck, you want a relationship :|? First they just want fucky fucky, then they get all emotional http://sa.tweek.us/emots/images/emot-colbert.gif

[Atty]

I'll settle for casual sex.

[Bodzilla]

i have a random thing in my ribs everynow and then

i havnt figured out exactly what causes it but it only happens rarely. basically my lower ribs feel like there getting stabbed. and it's that bad i literally yelp or go FUCK in pain.
now i hurt myself a fair bit, i smash into things i cut my hands ect ect while i'm working, so i've got a fairly good tolerance to pain, so it's pretty bad. goes away in like a second. i think mb my (shit cant remember) u know the diaphram? that moves up and down sucking air in and out of your lungs? anywya i think i get that caught on my ribs and it gets pinched or something.

anyone else had something similar to that?

also sorry to hear bout your grand parents and your mother. continue sticking by them man. good job.

[Digikid]

damn. i hope that you are okay there Atty. hopefully they can find out what is wrong and fix it without any side effects.

In the meantime....a healthy diet and proper excerise is key.

[Kornman00]

Tell that to the people that do just that and just fall over dead one day *splat* :|

[Emmzee]

Weird...you apparently eat healthy and are in good shape, yet your heart is doing something weird, and here I am, currently on my third Red Bull for today, eating straight out of a bag of Ruffles, and I feel dandy.


It'll probably come back in twenty years as a debilitating stroke that leaves me paralyzed from the neck down, though.

[Atty]

Well I spent from about 10:30am today until about 3:30 in the ER having tests done, Chest X-Ray, EKG, and a full blood work, so far they didn't' find anything wrong so they discharged me (my primary doctor told me to go in, because they were having trouble scheduling any of the tests). They said they are going to hook me up to a heart monitor for a few days to monitor everything and see if they can pin point the problem, until then we still don't know what is going on.

Was the discharge milky, or did it hurt?

[Digikid]

hmm.....discharge? Do I DARE ask what you are talking about?

[Atty]

So I've got to go to a Cardiologist for all these in depth crazy tests, fun. :-\

[Warsaw]

And they call themselves doctors...:downs:.

Hope everything turns out alright for ya.

[Kybo_Ren]

So... skipping from page 1 to page 4, I go from a serious post about a problem you have to,
"I'll settle for casual sex"

Lmfao.

Hope it's nothing major; I get sharp chest pains randomly sometimes, too.

[itszutak]

Quick! Call Dr. House!

[n00b1n8R]

You called?

[TeeKup]

It's probably a torn muscle.

I accidentally tore a muscle in my sleep and my entire left lung area hurt like bloody hell for 4 days straight. Had to stay in bed and just watch TV, while receiving loving care from my special someone. :3

[n00b1n8R]

That post made me feel all warm inside untill i remembered who your special someone was :3

[TeeKup]

Heh...it was great though, I got breakfast in bed, got my back rubbed, and the general cuddling. I know what you're thinking...ENVY

[n00b1n8R]

I wish I didn't :saddowns:

[Kybo_Ren]

That post made me feel all warm inside untill i remembered who your special someone was :3
Oh, shit!
BURN!

[TeeKup]

<_<;

I gave you sake damnit.

[Kybo_Ren]

Sorry, I'm drunk still :(

He still burned you though. It doesn't matter if your girlfriend is Heidi Klum; you still got burned :P

[n00b1n8R]

he has a boyfriend last time I checked >__>

it wasn't a burn it was a funny anecdote.

[TeeKup]

For a second there I read that as "it was a funny chocolate" for some reason.

You failed to specifi im Bi and Not totally gay. >__>

For instance, I would totally love to rub Heidi Klum in chocolated and lick it all up...

[n00b1n8R]

stilly cuddling guys.

I havn't called you outright gay in a while :-3

[TeeKup]

Oh stop living in your perfect dream world where everyone is normal...

Look out your window and you'll see life is actually like the paintings of Picaso.

[n00b1n8R]

I only see up to 3 sides of a cube at once. idk about you

also, i never said it was a bad thing. when I call you gay it's like people telling what's her name to get back in the kitchen.

[TeeKup]

I know. :3

It's better to understand a shape when you visualize the other side of it, I better understand society by visualizing the minority elements such as people like me. Therefore I can easily predict the actions, reactions, and other things your normal person would say to a homosexual and immediately counter it. Think about that. :-3

That doesn't work on the internet because well....its the damn internet those rules don't apply. :3

Wow this topic went from chest pains to sex to bisexual relations and then to social understanding. WE'RE ON A ROLL!!!

[Kybo_Ren]

I'm with you on the Heidi Klum one though... :D

[n00b1n8R]

Wow this topic went from chest pains to sex to bisexual relations and then to social understanding. WE'RE ON A ROLL!!!

+rep to the first person to bring the thread around to WTC conspiracys.

If you were really that insightful you'd be disgusted at even the thought of giving oral sex to another male... or to anyone, for that matter.


Look out your window and you'll see life is actually like the paintings of Picaso.
Society is imperfect because people choose to be imperfect, not vice-versa, no matter how much you would like to believe it.

Besides, you speak as if what you told us was secret wisdom. D-:

Also, *Picasso. ;)

[Warsaw]

Picasso inspired the World trade Center bombings, because the terrorists thought life needed more color...

Seriously though, any updates Atty?

[Atty]

Not yet, don't know when I see the Cardiologist, until then nothing knew.

[n00b1n8R]

If you were really that insightful you'd be disgusted at even the thought of giving oral sex to another male... or to anyone, for that matter.

I fail to see your logic >.>

[TeeKup]

If you were really that insightful you'd be disgusted at even the thought of giving oral sex to another male... or to anyone, for that matter.

Actually no. I would if I were straight, however I've learned to accept people for who they are because of that minority. No matter how much you hate it, theres nothing you can do about it, so just accept it. Thats what I did, in the process I accidentally fell in love.

It was actually a personal experiment to better understand human society and why they react to homosexuals the way they do, I understand why they react now and I don't blame them. However homosexuals ARE people and a valid group in society. You can't erase them, you can't ignore them, the only thing you can do is accept them and deal with it. Bitching and yelling about how its an abomination and wrong won't solve a thing since most solutions are EXTREMELY Immoral.

Somethings in life come natural, others you need to dive head first into the situation to learn, thats what I did. A few years later from my social experiment and I've never been happier with my life.:)

Ok seriously I need to get back on topic...

[rossmum]

Who cares anyway, they're not planning to convert us all to gays or anything.

Pity the same can't be said for some straight people.

[Atty]

...

[rossmum]

Fuck your heart problem Atty, we're discussing ethics here <:mad:>

[Atty]

I hope I die soon just so I can know that while I might be dead the all important issue of homosexuality is being rightfully discussed on the internet.


Edit: AND JUST SO YOU CAN FEEL BAD THAT THE LAST THING YOU SAID IN MY LAST THREAD WAS GAY STUFF, gosh <e-hate>

[Gamerkd16]

Fuck your heart problem Atty, we're discussing ethics here <:mad:>
That really was mean....

[rossmum]

That really was mean....
Yeah, it was so mean of me to make that comment in jest, considering Atty's a friend and all. I'm such a horrible guy, no wonder you think I'm causing all the trouble here... I mean, first telling the truth, that was bad enough, but now this?

:rolleyes:

[n00b1n8R]

LOL @ thread.

also, back to the topic at hand, how do you feel about gays.
as long as they don't try to convert me (or flirt too much with me :3) I'm fine.

[Kybo_Ren]

I'm perfectly fine with gay people. They're normal human beings who just happen to like different groups of people than you (I'm assuming you're straight) do.
I will say this, though: you need to stop calling them 'gays'. That's a derogatory slur and really pisses me off :mad:

[n00b1n8R]

I don't think it is >.>

gay is easier to say than homosexual, and as teekie said, he's verry happy :3 (not calling you gay though <3)

[rossmum]

Yeah, slur would be more like 'fags'.

They're cool, I have no problem with them.

[Gamerkd16]

Yeah, it was so mean of me to make that comment in jest, considering Atty's a friend and all. I'm such a horrible guy, no wonder you think I'm causing all the trouble here... I mean, first telling the truth, that was bad enough, but now this?

I just saw what I saw and said it was mean. I didn't know of an background friendships.

[rossmum]

I just saw what I saw and said it was mean. I didn't know of an background friendships.
Another example of how you come charging in guns blazing, without actually stopping to think about it first.

Do you enjoy proving me right or something?

[Gamerkd16]

I was just giving a reason for why I said it....:rolleyes:

[rossmum]

Which also sums up your entire mindset: you don't know shit about this place and how it works, yet you blindly argue anyway.

[Gamerkd16]

Um, ok?

Hope it's not too serious Atty.

[rossmum]

HAY GUYS I CAN CHANGE THE SUBJECT TO HIDE THE FACT I'VE RUN OUT OF COMEBACKS TOO, I'M COOL RIGHT?

[Gamerkd16]

Run out of comebacks? So you do want me to fight you. You can't hide that. That was trolling right there. My change of topics is to prevent flaming. Why are you trolling me? Please stop.

[Flyboy]

Your mindset ross is that anyone apparently who isn't a fucking H2v war veteran like yourself is in no place to be talking about anything huh?

[rossmum]

Sorry, I decided I'd try your tactic for a while, since you seem to be having so much fun.

Stop? You obviously continued it, it wasn't me at all. Gosh.

e:

No, Flyboy, it's that anyone who is fucking stupid enough to continue posting such hypocritical trash as you two should not be on the internet, much less this forum.

[Scream Thief]

Yeah, it was so mean of me to make that comment in jest, considering Atty's a friend and all. I'm such a horrible guy, no wonder you think I'm causing all the trouble here... I mean, first telling the truth, that was bad enough, but now this?

:rolleyes:

Maybe he's just not far enough into the obvious inner circle that operates here to actually KNOW that you are Atty's friend?

[rossmum]

Or maybe if he sat back and observed the way the community here interacts for a few days before going on his little crusade for justice, he'd realise it.

[Scream Thief]

Well I have certainly been observing this place for a long, long time; I'm not any the wiser.

It seems the "friendships"/acquaintances here change on an hourly basis.

Thank you Scream Thief. At least you understand.

Well, for a start, I thought Atty was the enemy of some here a while ago.

[Gamerkd16]

Well, for a start, I thought Atty was the enemy of some here a while ago.
I don't know why, but I keep wondering if Atty is guy or girl. Not by the way the person posts. I don't know. I guess the y at the end makes me think girl whenever I see the name. So which is it?

[rossmum]

Well, for a start, I thought Atty was the enemy of some here a while ago.
About a year and a half ago. Quite a long time, relative to the internet.

I have been lurking for a long while and didn't notice that, so how do you expect another new member, one who HASN'T been observing how this forum works, to know who likes who?

[Gamerkd16]

Uh, dude. If your referencing me, I'm not new. I've been here since January and been with gearbox for two years. I just don't memorize everyone's relationships with everyone else. To be honest, I don't remember seeing Rossmum ever before two days ago.

[rossmum]

You probably only ever posted in the CMT forums or some other team-specific or tech section.

Am I correct?

In any case, regardless of whether he could've feasibly known I was friends with Atty or not, he still charged in without a single thought and decided I was being the 'bad guy' I'd 'proven' myself to be in other threads. I'm pretty sure Atty can defend himself, and would be a much better judge of who is or isn't being rude to him.

[Gamerkd16]

You probably only ever posted in the CMT forums or some other team-specific or tech section.

Well at gearbox I posted in Off-topic, Tech and Halo. Here I've posted in same places.

So you don't post regularly in the CMT forum? K.

[rossmum]

I find it amazing you could possibly miss me here in Offtopic.

[Gamerkd16]

Well I don't really recognize people in a large crowd. Your 1 of 100's of people posting on this forum. It's only now because I hate you, do I easily find you.

[Scream Thief]

Well I don't really recognize people in a large crowd. Your 1 of 100's of people posting on this forum. It's only now because I hate you, do I easily find you.

Well, 5% of the posts on this entire forum are by him, after all.

[Flyboy]

That, and the fact that he has more posts than my mom has bottles of wine every night.

[rossmum]

I'd be worried if that was the other way around, Flyboy.

Really worried.

[Flyboy]

It nearly is.

[n00b1n8R]

Thought so :3

[Atty]

So I said I'd try and keep you all notified but I've been very busy lately and not able to be so active, but here is the low down of late:

About a month or so ago my pains started increasing, they got to the point where I was passing out from the pains. They've run as many tests as they can and say they see no problem yet I'm still suffering from the pain, which has gotten considerably worse, and I've been passing out, which I can't fake. I've spent a few days in the hospital on constant watch but still they can't pinpoint whats causing the problem. Unfortunately they've told me that the way its progressing my heart could fully fail at any time, I have to keep myself from overexerting myself, and have to be constantly around someone in case I pass out.

So yeah, thats whats up right now. I don't know what else to say but I just thought I'd let you all know, so yeah...I'll try and be active and keep you all informed of any developments.

[Gwunty]

So for the last year or so I've had this off and on pain in my chest, directly at my heart. Every so often (like once or twice a week) it would give me a sort of flutter feel, where I could feel my heart beating abnormally (you know when you can actually feel your heart beating? Well for me, when it happens, I can feel it beat and then stop, then kick back in, like its skipping a beat but its causing a lot of pain and happening way to often) and it wasn't caused by anything, it would happen at the most random of times. Lately its been going on more and more often, just in the last few minutes of typing this it has happened twice, and its starting to feel bad, giving me pains and dizziness. I wasn't too worried about it but my mom saw me get dizzy and asked me what the problem was, being that she was a nurse when I told her she scheduled a Dr's appoint for me straight away, worried it could be something serious. I had my appointment today and the Doc didn't know what was causing it, he isn't sure if its something terribly serious or not, but I do have to have chest X-Ray, Electro Cardiogram (EKG), and a full blood work done, which all sucks. I'm not too worried about it but still, it could be something serious.

So yeah, this sucks. :(
This happens to me alot mostly at night

[Snowy]

shizzle, needless to say, that sucks. :/ Sorry to hear that Atty. A while ago (over Xmas break), I started doing a few pushups a day (50 or so). Then I started getting an off/on pain in my chest, and other areas of my upper body. I was a bit scared, and felt like I was going to pass out many times. I don't know if it was releated to working out (which I hardly ever do) but mysteriously the pain seemed to go away. Have you done any thing "out of the norm"?

oh yeah, and I remember seeing something like this on Diagnosis X (or maybe it was mystery diagnosis). A guy was getting pain in his chest area due to his heart getting a lack of Potassium and Sodium. But he was also getting some pain in his hand, sharp pain. They did a test where he pissed in a cup, and they left it out over night. His pee turned purple (exposure to sunlight and air and such), and that's how they found out what's wrong with him.

I dunno, it kinda sounded similar to what you described.

Sorry to hear what you're going through Atty. :( Must be real scary. :/
I hope the best for you.

No, my life is mainly the same way as it was before it all started happening. I'm fairly healthy, before this got really bad I was working out nearly everyday each week, eating healthy, and doing my best to stay healthy, it just sort of came out of nowhere. As for you, that pain in your chest is probably the muscles in your chest growing or just chest pains from that kind of workout when you aren't in a very fit condition, not sure though.

[Ki11a_FTW]

i would get a pain like this maybe once every 2 months, it lasts for like a half a second yet it hurts like a fucking bitch

i wish you the best atty

[jngrow]

I've had a bunch of weird shit like that (though not as severe) happen to me over my life. They all went away though. My current "thing" is a grinding left shoulder.

me too :\

I had that same pain when I started doing crunches frequently. It was just under where the abs connect with the ribcage. I expect I worked them too hard and strained the ligaments (is that the right word?).

[n00b1n8R]

My current thing is THIS FUCKING LEG D:<!
also epic sucks @ atty (try not to die D: )

[DrunkenSamus]

Mine is a twisted ankle. It's nothing compared to what you guys are suffering. -_-

[LlamaMaster]

me too :\
Oh wow, me three. I screwed it up playing red rover and it never recovered. :/ (doesn't hurt, but it is somewhat annoying at times)

[Bodzilla]

i've got a weird thing that comes and goes. about once every couple of months for about 2 seconds it feels like someone has ran a samurai sword through my ribs. then it disappears mysteriously.
dunno whether muscle is getting caught in between my ribs or something like that, but more often the nnot it gets me when my backs contorted, say if i'm lying on the couch with on arm on the rest holding my upper body up.

weird :o

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

This kinda reminds me of the pains i used to get

I used to get pains through my body, that would feel like almost as if there was a clunk of small food in my blood, it felt as if the pain would circle my body, but now its gone, Idk what happened though.

Also, ive permanantly disabled my leg from excercising i think, It can bend too far in the wrong direction easily, and it hurts :S

[Snowy]

^that's exactly how I felt. But the "chunk of food" would stay on the left side of my chest. It wouldn't necessarily hurt, but I know it wasn't right.

[CrAsHOvErRide]

Reminds me of the times I used to get these sharp pains in my chest. Actually until now I haven't noticed it stopped........
I had that too...normal part of the growing process. Don't breath in that much air...because if you it will give you a sharp pain again...it's gone after a few seconds though. :D

[Kornman00]

Super "healthy" people can bite the dust just as easily as Mr. 500lb-sumo-jumo can. You could be out running then all of a sudden *BAM* heart stops & ur face smacks into the pavement with a crack :gonk:.

Theres this guy I know, he had chest pains for the longest time. Turns out it was his eye medicine drops that was giving him the chest pain. Doctors are stupid :v

[Bodzilla]

another dude i used to know had his farther die young from a heart attack.
so he was determined to be super fit to stop it from happening. So he took up bike riding and used to ride all over the country side.
unbelievably fit he was.

about 2 years ago he had a heart attack in his sleep, and died. i think he was only 55.

[odseraphim]

Just to let you know, you pretty much described me to a T about a year ago, Atty. My problem (still is one, too) was slight food allergies. I would get a sharp pain after eating something I wasn't supposed to (wheat, onion, garlic), and would get small red bumps on my skin and have breathing problems. This, combined with my acid reflux caused me to pass out on 2-3 occasions.

[ima_from_America]

Sometimes I can just be sitting still, and my neck involuntarily twitches and stops suddenly.

[Warsaw]

That would be called fatigue. I get random muscle spasms too after I have been up for awhile.

[Emmzee]

My current "thing" is a grinding left shoulder.
Mine is a clicking left jaw. Some days it won't click, and I can't open my mouth all the way.

[Con]

atty, got an update? doin alright still?

[ima_from_America]

No, I can just be sitting still and doing nothing, and my neck just twitches.

That happened to a sophomore at my school a few years ago. He was on the basketball team and was playing during a game, then the next thing everyone knew, he had had a heart attack and died.

The shittiest things can happen to the best people.

[Phopojijo]

Had a similar thing happen...

It was a partially dislocated shoulder.

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

Was it your right shoulder?
If so, are you my brother? :O

[Skiiran]

No, I can just be sitting still and doing nothing, and my neck just twitches.
This.

Sometimes I'll start feeling my muscles spaz to the beat of a song, too (and I'm not talking about my legs; every taps their feet to the beat and if not what the fuck man).

[Hunter]

Lmao. my muscels just have a random spaz sumtimes.

[Kornman00]

Take a knee and drink water :|

[Monopoly]

Lmao. my muscels just have a random spaz sumtimes.


Same thing happens to my penis :(

[MNC]

I sometimes feel a strange kind of pinch in a muscle in my armpit. It's weird.

[Emmzee]

Sometimes I masturbate so hard, blood comes out.

[n00b1n8R]

Same thing happens to my penis :(
FFS, poo does not go on dick. see what it's doing?

also emmzee, see a doctor tbh.
