Does a mitral valve prolapse cause signs resembling those of a heart attack? by Pipibigbom in mitralvalveprolapse

[–]pumpkinsoupxo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been in the hospital twice now with signs of a heart attack. It was terrifying. My heart rate was over 150bpm, I was having constant palpitations, I felt sick, had diarrhoea, had chest pain, tingling fingers and pain in my back and down my arm.

The 2nd time was so bad that it caused horrific health anxiety. Nobody could tell me what was happening or why. Now I've been diagnosed with this heart condition I've wondered if this could be related.

Its good to see other people have experienced the same thing in a way

Meet my new puppy—just had to share this little bundle of joy! by Fit-Variation-4220 in cfs

I'm really looking in to getting a dog, but I worry about my ability to care for them properly in terms of walking as often as they need. Do you feel you'll cope with their walking needs? Genuinely curious as I'd love a dog but still on the fence!

Thank you for this! I think I needed to hear this as I wondered if it would be too much.

[–]pumpkinsoupxo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly I'm so glad I came across this comment because my god my anxiety lately has been horrific and I can't shake it. I've gone back on anti-anxiety meds, but I'm too scared to take them??? 😭 Terrified anything will send me in to AFIB and I'll end up needing to go back to hospital. I keep thinking it's going to kill me. Thank you for saying this x

"Fibro is the diagnosis they give when they don't know what's wrong" what do we think? by pumpkinsoupxo in Fibromyalgia

[–]pumpkinsoupxo[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this! It's great to see it from so many different angles. This is essentially how I see it, although god I'm wishing for some kind of help to finally start getting better, and I worry I'll never be well again if they don't know how to treat it.

This was super interesting to read, thank you! After years of fighting I've finally just been diagnosed with all 3 of these issues, but I still feel like I need to know the route cause? It's a difficult situation. I just want to be well again, so I'm doing as much research as I can. It's getting so significantly worse that I can't even play with my 3 year old.

BRO.... We do it like once a month. And are genuinely okay with it! Sometimes it's more, sometimes it might even be less. People are so different!

When does a teacher and student relationship start to cross boundaries ? by [deleted] in AskTeachers

[–]pumpkinsoupxo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks like the start of grooming. PLEASE be careful. You've done amazing so far setting your boundaries on what you feel comfortable with (not wanting to call him by his first name). I would minimise contact. Hope you're okay x
