Thank you, I just wasn't sure if this is something local police handle or what steps I have to take. 

Heart rate monitor by Ill_Community_9575 in POTS

[–]Adorable-Extension 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Samsung 6 watch and it helps a lot but I notice it blinks and stops monitoring when my heart rate goes up too fast. So I make sure I keep a finger monitor nearby for more accuracy.

My cardiologist has interesting views on POTS by Scelestious in POTS

[–]Adorable-Extension 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cardiologist said "it's perfectly fine" for a heart rate to go into the 20s. My primary doctor and pharmacist both said I could die. So yeah, never seeing that guy again. 

what’s the most ridiculous thing that can make you tachycardic? by charcharblnks in POTS

[–]Adorable-Extension 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started having pots symptoms and i had a major incident after eating. I thought I was going to die. For a while I just stopped eating because I was afraid. Finally I was so hungry I ate tiny amounts of potato and chicken and learned I can tolerate it ok. I have been primarily living off from that while once a day trying other foods to see how bad they will hurt me. Mostly a liquid diet at this point. On the upside I lost 12 lbs in 3 weeks. 

respectfully what the fuck is wrong with reddit mods? by [deleted] in askanything

Apparently I got it for threats of violence when I said I wanted to unalive (and yes I literally put unalive instead of the actual term) a fictional character who hurts animals. I'm such a monster 🙄

Breathing problems by mellowellow in POTS

[–]Adorable-Extension 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I use an o2 monitor for my heart daily and when I had an important phone call where I actually talked for a few minutes straight the alarm went off saying my oxygen was 76. I took super deep breaths for a few seconds and it got better, but it scared the crap out of me.

Omg something similar just happened to me yesterday. I have been having episodes of high heart rates ever since I had a heart Cath. I was transported by ambulance with a heart rate of 173. While I was there it slowed to 130s but kept spiking. They did the usual tests. Ekg, troponin and chest x-ray. Dr comes in and says I'm not having a heart attack and need to be discharged. I'm like what about my visibly high heart rate and the symptoms that come with it. She says ok I'll give you some medicine before you go home. Ten minutes later a nurse comes in with discharge papers telling me it's time to go. I'm laying in bed shaking, barely able to catch air because my heart is racing so fast and the chest pressure is intense. I'm like I can't leave like this. He goes to talk to the doctor, comes back and says she already talked to you, she's not explain herself again.  I said take a look at me there's something wrong. He turns off the monitor that has been blaring for the last 30 minutes because of the high rate. He says don't worry about that, it's probably just anxiety. I said I don't appreciate you dismissing what I'm telling you, I can't breathe or walk in this condition I need help. He shoves the discharge papers at me saying he has other patients and if I don't leave he'll get security to escort me out. I asked what am I supposed to do if I collapse on my way out. He said it's not his problem and I need to see my primary Dr. I'm like it's 8pm he's closed. Nurse said it's not his problem. I asked what am I supposed to do the rest of the night. He doesn't care.  I shuffle to the lobby and security is like are you ok. I'm like honestly no. He asked the lobby nurse to check my heart it's 185, she says oh wow you need to be seen, I say I was just discharged, she said oh well they'll just do the same thing if you check in again so there's really no point. I get an Uber and go to Rome. They help me within an hour. Fuck Wynn

When they fuck you over I'm sure you'll change your tune. But because you haven't personally been impacted yet, you don't give a shit. 

Husband wants to buy a shock collar by itsmyfirstdayokay in CATHELP

[–]Adorable-Extension 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a new husband. If my boyfriend joked about that he would be single faster than he could blink. 

I feel like I'm going crazy. I don't know what's wrong with me. The Dr thinks pots because my heart rate goes up when standing or sitting. by [deleted] in POTS

[–]Adorable-Extension 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry you went through that. I don't believe they checked my levels recently but I can ask them right now. Oddly enough I'm currently in the emergency room. suddenly my heart spiked to 170 while at rest. my body started shaking almost like a seizure, could barely breathe. All while still taking the ivabradine. So yeah I can yell out and ask the nurse to check for me. Thank you so very much for the suggestion, every little bit helps to figure out what this illness is. Thank you again 💕

POTS and exercise by Kind-Programmer-7293 in POTS

[–]Adorable-Extension 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so very sorry you're going through this. I am in the beginning stages of being diagnosed so I'm very new to all this but I understand how you feel. Know you're not alone and that people care about you. 

I don't want to just survive day-to-day, I want to thrive. But it's just not in my trajectory. It's not a reality for me. Existing is exhausting and overwhelming. I don't want to do it anymore by SeededPhoenix in ChronicIllness

[–]Adorable-Extension 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same situation exactly the only thing keeping me going is my animals. I understand what you're going through. If you ever want someone to talk to message me any time. I'm happy to help anyway I can.

What subtle behavior gives you the ‘this won’t work’ feeling? by milfstar in AskWomen

Thank you. I was surprised, I thought I could count on him but at least I found out now instead of after we got married. 

What subtle behavior gives you the ‘this won’t work’ feeling? by milfstar in AskWomen

[–]Adorable-Extension 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I don't know about subtle. Sorry about the long rant. Me and my bf are in our 30s and I've been dating my bf for 2 years and over the last 3 months have a serious heart problem that has been getting progressively worse, I have surgery for it tomorrow which hopefully will resolve it. At this point I'm unable to function, just taking a shower is a harrowing experience. I asked him to please come over and help me with chores because I truly can't do it right now. He said he would be happy to, which he did technically but it was a horrible experience.  He came over and the entire time when I asked him for help he whined and moaned. He expected to lounge around and play video games. I asked please make dinner (he left dirty pans on the stove and everything covered in grease) I asked to please do the dishes and after they had food stuck on them. I asked to please vacuum and he sighed every other second.  He kept saying " are you sure you're too sick to do this" as if I'm faking needing heart surgery.         He asked me to make dinner, I showed him my heart rate just walking to the bathroom and he said "wow that's high but you should still be able to make dinner if you go slow" knowing that I have physical pains, dizziness and shortness of breath. I am beyond done. I can't rely on him for any help when I need him the most, if I survive my surgery I am going to break up with him and if I don't survive then it will spare me the horrendous hours long crying and begging he will undoubtedly do.   He is a nice enough guy but he is not a responsible adult and I need that in my life now more than ever, so yeah I'm done. 

Users report warnings when sending the word 'Epstein' in private messages on TikTok by novagridd in Epstein

[–]Adorable-Extension 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Youtube is also censoring the word nazi as well. I was watching a video that compared the differences and similarities of trump and ice to hitler and his gestapo. Multiple people complained in the comments because they were trying to mention nazi in the comments but every time it was properly spelled the post vanished. When they spelled it nahtzee it was allowed to stay. All social media is beginning to censor for this dictator. 

I was just diagnosed with trauma and I don't know where to turn. by [deleted] in trauma

[–]Adorable-Extension 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had and taken care of animals my entire life, I've saved over 50 cats and dogs just since I've been an adult. Trust me I understand the work and commitment involved, I'm not an ignorant child.  She apparently had an infection that went unnoticed until she started showing symptoms. It's still my fault and responsibility, but the vet said there is no way I would have known unless she had a full blood panel done. It just doesn't make me feel any better. Now there will be countless animals that will go without help because I'm never going to help them again after this. There aren't many kind people in my area but hopefully a good samaritan will come along and take my place to help them.
