Best of luck, Drew. Hope things go well.
My explanation why I haven't been on this week. I had a stroke. 30 years old and have a Teddy Bruschi-esque stroke. Too much stress and high blood pressure. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif[/img]
damn ironlung...are you okay? i hate to hear that for anyone.
Dang Herb. Your gonna have to lay off the Fritos. No more dry land fish for you to fry up!
I'm fine now. (and don't want to ruin Drew's thread). I woke up Sunday morning and couldn't move the right side of my body. I tried to stand up to get out of the bed and fell through an entertainment center, knocked off an Xbox, lots of cd's, dvd's, almost the tv. Fell several times trying to get down the hall. Finally made it to the shower and got cleaned up and by that time I started getting some feeling back. My girlfriends mom (who's an RN) showed up and took my BP and it was like 170/110. The whole thing lasted about an hour and a half. They said it was a mini stroke. Scared the hell out of me. I thought I's going to be a cripple for the rest of my life. They put me on new meds for Cholesterol and BP. I've went through MRI's, EEG's, EKG's, Chest X Rays, Untra Sounds of my heart and corrotted arteries. Scary stuff. Now, I've got to shed these extra lb's. I've lost a little over 10 in the last week and a half.

The crazy thing is, my arteries didn't look bad at all. My problem is stress. This job's had me in fits the last week or so. That's why my bp is so high.
dang dude....i hope everything is good, glad to hear you are doing fine now
" i cussed...apparently thats frowned upon"
Unfortunately. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif[/img] And yes, I'm fine.
I got a PM because I cussed. I feel like a little kid on here. Should I raise my hand and get permission to post? How sad times have become.
On a happier note glad to hear you are doing well.
