No way. I've seen every episode of House. And Maybe if you gave it two weeks to work instead of two hours. Also, if you have buttsex, trying being the top for a while.

To add to his credentials, I am quite certain that he stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Trust me, I'm a doctor.

What does this have to do with being a hippopotomus?

SittinOnDubsWGW · 01-17-2011, 09:45 PM

You know that kinda hot feeling whenever you get hit on the top of your head kinda hard? I've gotten that twice tonight, and haven't gotten hit in the head. weird.

Uh, no. Been hit a lot and don't know it.

I should state affiliation. I'm probably the anti-hypochondriact. Unless it comes to the sniffles. Those just kick my ass.

Brain cancer.

Mr. Blonde · 01-17-2011, 10:05 PM

FWIW I have a CT scan scheduled for tonight. Have felt progressively more nauseous during activity the past several days.

ninjaface · 01-17-2011, 10:46 PM

OH EM GEE!! I thought we were all going to have to come there are drag you to the hospital ourselves!!!

Ironic Mustache · 01-25-2011, 01:41 PM

Updates?

Mr. Blonde · 01-25-2011, 06:50 PM

A little ashamed to update I guess, but I suppose I did pre-empt that with the thread title. Doctors couldn't find anything, which is good because the main thing I was worried about was something serious, the "presence" feeling and in general feeling ill got me very worried. He suggested it might be psychological and asked if I was stressed out. In my emotional and suggestive state of mind, I answered "maybe" -- of course everyone is stressed out about something all the time. He prescribed me a week of Xanax and sent me on my way.

I'm no stranger to medication but i've been off of everything for a few years now (besides when sick etc.) and that Xanax fucked with me big time. All I did the day after taking it was think about killing myself all day. Apparently this is one of the very harsh side effects so I only took it that day -- luckily I'm at a point where I can realize that was what was causing me to think like that. Those drugs can seriously fuck up your mental state.

In any case, I still think it was something, as there was a definite presence of abdomen pressure and nausea/headache/fever, but whatever it is doesn't seem to be anything serious, and I am not having the symptoms anymore, so it looks like it went away. Weird as shit not knowing what it was and annoying spending about 300$ on appointments, but another lesson learned for a hypochondriac. Also spent a week feeling like Paranoid Parrot before the CT scan:

Thanks for asking.

This really is pretty easy.

^^^^^This

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 01-25-2011, 09:03 PM

Blonde, will you mail me the rest of your Xanax?

vaga1220 * · 01-25-2011, 09:36 PM

I'll +rep you if you can send me some Ritalin.

Saint DH · 06-01-2011, 10:33 PM

For almost the past two years, I've noticed that my heart rate seems to be constantly elevated. In the beginning, I would only notice it while I was laying down at night to sleep. Lately, I've noticed it much more frequently and pretty much non stop for the past few days. It causes a slight amount of discomfort in my chest and a very weak amount of pain. I have also begun to feel slightly short of breath for the past few days as well. I've noticed that I'm taking deep breaths all the time, and I'm tired a lot, even after 7 hours of sleep. At first I attributed this all to stress/anxiety, which I have not yet ruled out completely, but I'm becoming concerned. As a result, I've scheduled a doctor's appointment, but since I'll be a new patient, I can't get in until the 15th. I hope I don't die by then.

Ugly Bastard · 06-01-2011, 11:45 PM

God damn man elevated heart rate is no joke of a symptom. Good luck. (pussy)

DDTempest · 06-02-2011, 08:09 AM

Drink less caffeine

angry pancake · 06-02-2011, 11:41 AM

what tempest said

vaga1220 * · 06-02-2011, 01:36 PM

How long have you been smoking?

Saint DH · 06-02-2011, 01:38 PM

I smoked for 7 years. I've been smoke-free for almost three months now. I do still take nicotine lozenges every day though. I've cut back significantly, but I have thought caffeine and nicotine could be the cause. I just want to get checked out to make sure it's nothing serious. Mainly because I was a smoker for 7 years, but considering I just did 200 pushups, it's probably not life-threatening.

Ugly Bastard · 06-02-2011, 01:42 PM

Well that brag was thinly veiled. (10)

vaga1220 * · 06-02-2011, 01:47 PM

1 set of 200?

Saint DH · 06-02-2011, 02:21 PM

Oh no way. 1 set of 40, 1 set of 30, and then sets of 20 until...okay I might have only done 190.

My workout is kinda lame, but I have little to work with. On pushup day, I alternate between three different kinds of pushups: Regular pushups, pushup bars horizontal, and push up bars vertical. I also do ab wheel and kettle bell shit in between sets of push ups.

Saint DH · 06-02-2011, 04:52 PM

Mich Ultra seems to make it markedly worse, yet I continue drinking.

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 06-02-2011, 11:11 PM

I just did 300 pushups.
