I spent my morning in the Emergency Room. Scary Stuff!!!!

[PistolPete33]

So this morning starting around 5:30am I broke out into a MAJOR sweat. Not uncommon as I am on a Blast which includes Test, Deca, and T-Bol. Anyways, I was sweating like I've never sweated before and I thought it was just night sweats. Then, my stomach started cramping up like I've never experienced before. Originally thought it was the Prami I took last night. Anyways, I started feeling like I was going to lose my bowels so I got out of bed and this is where things went down-hill FAST.


I got to the end of my bed and I collapsed to the floor. I don't remember what happened next. My body went into shock and I started convulsing and shaking about. I was sweating like nothing I've ever sweated before and my wife was freaking out. She said she was calling 911 and I told her not to. I quickly realized that wasn't an option. She said I was seizing. A few minutes later the police showed up and helped me to bed. He figured I was having a seizure as well and a minute or so later the parametics arrived. The ended up strapping me to a chair to get me out of the house and into the ambulance.

They were concerned that I had a seizure, went into diabetic shock, or worse a stroke. They ran an EKG, took some blood to check blood glucose levels and everything was fine. My blood pressure in my house at first was 108/40 which it's typically 135/80ish. Anyways, I get rushed to the ER where they run 3 more EKG's, take a ton of blood and ask a ton of questions.

My bloodwork all came back fine except that I was severely dehydrated. I have been feeling like crap this week and just couldn't get hydrated. My Hematocrit was 48. Anyways, they determined it was a Vasal-Vagal attack where I passed out and I was shaking like I was having a seizure because my blood pressure and heart rate had dropped so low. I'm fine now but let's just say that was crazy scary.

Anyone else ever have something like this?

WTF? ? ?

Daum

I thought I had it bad, I'm pretty sure I have food poisoning or something - I have been getting the chills & the shitts for almost 24 hours


But, not this - no seizures. . . . Just a slight fever


Damn man, your luck just isn't so swell:/

I feel bad just reading your post.
You need to play the lottery because at some point your luck has to change.
Get better man

[zempey]

Hope everything is ok, that doesn't sound like a fun morning.

[fitnesstrainer]

I'm glad everything turned out ok man. Prayers go out to you for sure.

[PistolPete33]

My luck def. has to change at some point. It was def. scary. My wife was so scared that she threw up. WTF My son was so scared as well. The hardest part is they look up to you like you're superman and this makes you look like a mere mortal. HAHA

The cool part though was that in the ambulance they couldn't get the blood pressure strap around my arms because it kept popping off so they needed to get a bigger one. That made me feel happy. Same thing when we got to the hospital. My wife was giving me a hard time saying I need to stop lifting so I can get normal medical treatment. HAHA

I'm not that big either but it was good for the ego. haha

Your nuts glad you found something funny about

[BG]

Maybe your pushing things to close to the limit? You had threads that stated how stressful your life has been lately then you take gear which is going to stress it more, lifting more but your not going to feel breaking down because the juice will blanket it.

I hope they figure out what it is and I have to agree with BG, it could be stress related. My daughter started having seizures, passing out (not fainting) and had to be taken to the hospital several times when she was in Jr High and High school. It all started about 6 months after her step mom died. She had TONS of test done over a couple of years but they never found a reason for it. The most they found was a couple ulcers.

She has not had any for several years now but was diagnosed with low blood pressure recently.

It might be the prami... I had this side before from I think it was the caber I took. I just had these intense hot flashes, where I'd just sweat profusely and be completely out of breath. They would continue until I stopped the caber.

[tdoe11]

Dang brotha, my prayers and thoughts go out to you as well. How scary. How much water were you drinking daily?

^thats fvcked up lol

sorry to hear about this episode man...it sounds like some scary shit. i would recommend aborting cycle and returning to trt dose just to be safe.

[< <Samson> >]

True though, take it easy or somethin'

That's a little too rough to be considered "normal" &/or "okay"

[DCI]

Holy shit pp sorry to hear that least you are well now tho

[PistolPete33]

I haven't aborted my cycle except I didn't take the T-Bol or Prami the day I had the issue. I feel perfectly fine now and I'm completely rehydrated and back to normal. I only hit the gym twice last week so maybe I just needed a break. I hit the gym today and felt awesome. If I have a similar experience again I will abort the cycle but I think I just need to listen to my body more closely. I think we are so used to pushing ourselves to the limits esp. when we are on cycle that even when we feel like crud we still push too hard.

It's prob. a combination of all the stress I've been under lately, the dehydration, and possibly over-training as well.

Damn that is a some crazy scary sh^t! Take it easy brother. Health first! Orals jack my heart rate and BP like something fierce. I don't touch them anymore! Glad your ok and hope this was a one time event.

I think hydration is the key. Not to play it down but my wife had a very similar experience in the morning the day after she overdid it in the tanning bed. The extreme sweating followed by not hydrating enough probably just overdid it for your body and it shut down.

Hope you get this sorted Pete, crap like this makes you realize how much we take the little things for granted. Luck has to change for the better in 2015.
