When your body betrays you.
Me: I'm strong. Nothing stresses me.
My heart: Wanna bet?
Me: Yeah, I'm fine.
Heart: Ok, watch this.
Boom!
Me:Wtf?
Doctor: Anxiety attack. It was a warning.
Me: It can do that? I don't have anxiety.
Doctor: Yes. Without warning and you don't need anxiety. When your heart messes with you, it creates it's own.
Me: God dammit.
So. Evidently, I had a slight "issue".
Which triggered an anxiety attack and then actually created anxiety.
I actually said, "Oh S h I t! That ain't right."
So a few pills over the next couple days and recheck the EKG to be sure.
Not gonna lie. i've been on some pretty sketchy situations in my life, but this one freaked me out.
Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

It’s no fun when your body screws with you. Hopefully it’s easily treatable.
I ended up with partial nerve damage in my hands and feet. I have medication now but they said it could take up to two years to return to normal if it does.

Sorry to hear. Try to take it easy. I've had some anxiety attacks myself and they're no joke.

I am sore all over now.
But for some reason, oddly it isn't bothering me.
Probably the meds.

Hope it was a one-time thing, Tony.

You prolly just need more patience.

You'll be fine, Tony. Not a fun thing to go through, but you'll be fine.
Maybe you want us all to bomb you so you have something fun waiting for you when you get home.
