I knew this was coming 🤪

[Fluidic Kimbo]

Broadly speaking there are 3 kinds of contributor on this forum:
(1) Never post negatively
(2) Post negatively in retaliation for others having posted negatively first
(3) Post negatively even when unprovoked

Hey wango, how can I go about demoting myself from category 2 to category 1?

It seems that the people with the most inner peace have an ability not to latch on to others' negativity.

Hope everybody's been good. July 28th I asked Jennifer Rose Olsen to marry me. I truly never thought I was going to ask anyone that ever again.

I'm very fortunate to have found love like hers.

About a week ago I was at work and I noticed as the days went by I couldn't really go very hard and I was sweating profusely for no reason and out of breath and my chest was getting tight. I finally did what OBS never does and I went to a doctor to get an EKG.
I've had a lot of EKGs and I checked out okay on the EKG but when they pulled my bloods my kidneys were failing I had rhabdomyolysis. They admitted me a couple days.

I had been pushing it very hard at work but not enough to break muscle tissue down enough to cause something like that. So I was scratching my head trying to figure out why this could have happened and I knew my chest didn't feel right.
I told the doctors this only happens when I'm under duress and I ask them to give me a heart stress test.

I just got done with the test, (which I couldn't take the physical because I had hurt my foot and I couldn't run as fast as they wanted on the treadmill so they gave me a chemical stress test) and I went back to my room and a nurse started being a bitch. I guess she was having a bad day.

I walked out of the ICU against medical advice and went back home and drink some beer and still felt like shit I knew something wasn't right even though my kidneys were starting to improve.

I drove to an ER and another town where I know people and I really like the hospital and the doctors and nurses there.

I got the results of my stress test and it turns out I have heart failure.

I had a very very good young doctor tell me that it wasn't my steroid use. The right side of my heart has modeled itself into non-working tissue and he believes it was because of the ephedrine I took for years and energy drinks.

I'm not going to be around long but I think anyone who knows me already knew that. This weekend I'm going to take down a big dead American elm and it's going to be the last tree I ever climb. I finally get to hang up my climbing spurs and it's going to be a fucking relief.

The doctor said if I live a healthy lifestyle it will lengthen my life possibly. I'm not going to change my lifestyle and I still drink beer and I still smoke cigarettes.

I quit the whiskey and the hard drugs. I told my boss the news and he is a very good man I absolutely adore him. They told the guys at work I'm not going to be able to move very fast.

I don't abuse steroids anymore I self administer my trt. The doctor recommended that I continue doing so.

I can't go pound iron and get jacked anymore but if I could go back in time I would have chose bodybuilding over my career. My job has been the biggest stressor in my life and it took way more motivation than doing what I loved.

I always said I hope someday I can just sit under a tree and enjoy the shade and not see the tree as a pain in the ass and a fucking dollar sign.
I'm going to get to do that now.
I'm going to get to enjoy a lot of shit I never got the chance to.

And I hope my brother's here remember that we're all terminally ill. Every single one of us is dying.

I hope you live your life that way and you get to enjoy the little time you have.

I don't got time for much anymore but in case you guys don't hear from me again I just want you all to know it's been a pleasure.

You guys do what you want to do to make you happy. Don't fucking live other people's lives for them and try to be what they want you to be to make them happy.

U never used speed, coce, ketamin, molly..just ephedrin, energydrinks?

Else i wanna say in generall an EKG is useless almost. You can have 70% blockage and it wont show. (Source Dr Pradip Jamnadas)
Calsium score test is what u should ask for.
Maybe if u asked for this test instead of the EKG, Obs, it migth have shown your problemes also in a much earlier state.

Obs, I tried to reach you again. Find that good cardiologist. Ask what his treatment plan is. If be very surprised if they didn't run a nuclear stress test, if they didn't at your hospital visit.
I was so short of breath and low O2 that they laid me out and revved me up with dobutamine. Think they use a different stim now.

Will try to reach you again tomorrow at about the same time as the message I left today.

I don’t know much about the heart - I’m no MD, or even close

Although, I have learned quite a bit about the human brain from my own experiences

If you have insurance, I’d hit up the PCP - get a referral to a cardiologist, then go from there

I have been dealing with random chest pains/tightness in the recent few years. No idea exactly why, my BP is still decent & stable. But, I’m trying to keep it at bay. I was diagnosed with an enlarged heart when I was in for my brain explosion. But, it really hasn’t been brought up since.

Do you think your symptoms line up with chest-wall syndrome?

Possibly

You’re talking to a guy who had multiple brain hemorrhages & didn't even know it

The human self diagnostic system doesn’t work that well - at all

Like what you mentioned “Costochondritis”, I have never even heard of at all

It’s nearly impossible for us to self diagnose ourselves.

Personally, I am just much much more self aware. I’m trying to prolong my health - “trying”

You're right about it being impossible to self-diagnose. The internet is awful when it comes to that.

I had no clue that I was full on hemorrhaging when I walked into ER - I expected some sort of bad bone infection or something, since I had a badly abscessed tooth right on the same side & in the upper portion of my jaw

The news of a brain bleed were prob just as bad as the pain from that point on

[< <Samson> >]

HOLLY ASS! I just found u on TikTok

U have 5 kids?

When they drop that sort of news on you, did you panic? Or did you mentally downplay the seriousness or what?

[Fluidic Kimbo]

I've found in the past that panic only arises in a situation where you believe you can act to influence the outcome.

I remember I was in the ER and I was told 'Your liver's going to fail'. Of course I wasn't over the moon about this news but panic didn't make sense because there was nothing I could do -- I was already in the hospital so my part was done.

[< <Samson> >]

I can’t really put it into words, the way they said it in my local shit bag hospital.

Like - Hey “guy” you're about to die - we suggest calling your family or loved ones. It felt like getting hit by a bus + I was in a ton of pain.


When I got to the next hospital the following day, it was nite & day. They are one of the top neurosurgical facilities in the US. They had me bed ridden on meds within 15-20 mins, calming me down & talking about exactly what’s going on.

Were you able to get ahold of him?

[almostgone]

Were you able to get ahold of him?

I've been calling in the evenings after work when he's asleep. We've texted a few times. I've got an appointment early tomorrow morning and going to try again after the appointment.

Edit: I did remind him he has a lot of people that care and think a lot of him.

[< <Samson> >]

Is he “real” a for his sakes I hope not

I came across the multi million view TikTok since I spend way more time on there.

Dude has 5 kids? Just asking

Been my same question for quite some time.

So, he’s a real guy with 5 kids & terminal heart failure?

This smelled like a crock of TikTok shit to me - for “his” sakes, I hope it is

If anyone wants a link feel free to shoot me a PM - all of the comments in the TikTok postings are turned off - how strange. . . Yet, this got him almost one million likes. Hmmmm - oh well

Are you saying Obs is a famous “tik toker”??

[-Ender-]

I'm very sorry to hear this OBS. A cardiologist will have far more insight into your situation than an ER doctor. I hope to hear that you are pleased with another opinion.

LOL, no idea about the children and I don't mess around on "Tik Tok".
Just thought I would post up that I did speak with him and he said he has an upcoming cardiologist appointment.

The forums are pretty much the extent of my social media experience. I rarely peep around on IG except for lifting, firearms, and dog- related/nature posts. Those f-in French bulldogs are just funny as hell

I'm too old and "China-phobic" for TikTok. Now, my sister-in-law and my niece are diehard TikTok-ers

So what?

[XnavyHMCS]

He was probably trolling the hell outta us... I thought he was more serious than that; if trolling is the case.

Anyways, I thought that this could fit here, as the title of the thread fits:

Dick Butkus died.
At 80 yo, one could say, "I knew this was coming".

[< <Samson> >]

TikTok is full of em

I have a solid network of people who are real & have serious medical conditions. We help one an another depending on the day

[< <Samson> >]

5 kids & and. . .

So what?

What kids? Just sayin

Idgaf - I just stay connected pretty well nower days

No wonder he doesnt spend any time here, he’s probably getting some sort of payout. Almost a million likes and 10k shares on one reel. I dont know about the tok, but I hear youtube pays out fairly well

In any event, Obs is still a contributor on the forum; he's got us talking about this thread.
