Jesus man. This hurts. Whats happening? What is your current diagnosis? It almost sounds like you are saying you need a transplant or something?

[Fleet]

Ok so your future is ok? You are dealing with high blood pressure? I get spikes in my bp. Its not often but when its up i take a propranolol. And thats if i cant get it lowered on my own.

I have had really good results with essential oils. For stress etc. And i take a blend that is really good for my heart.

[blueman]

Not lame at all, where else you gonna get the MOJO!!!

[Fleet]

Dont ever feel lame about opening up with this type of stuff Punchy. Its what this community thrives on. Those who open up about their battles here have a ton of positive outcomes. Men we are a group of mojo dealing motherfuckers.

[Mister Hoarse]

Watch the sodium. I cut my to intake to 2000mg per day a year ago and I'm already off my BP meds.

[Hard Charger]

There's a ton of med's out there... Find one that works best for you! Same ole shit here and I was diagnosed while I was still running 3 to 10 miles every day at 25 years old no less.

Good luck man, hypertension is nothing to fuck with!!!

Hope you feel better oip, things could always be worse trust me. Keep your head up

[bonehead]

Hope you feel better soon Opie....those meds can take some time to adjust to

[Boltx]

Sorry, are you dealing with hypertension or an arrhythmia? I assumed the latter when you said ticker not slowing down.

Don't have to answer if you don't want to. Sending you major mojo either way, brother.

[oneinchpunch]

Doc said arrhythmia. Although I dont understand the difference.

It seems the meds are helping although my head would disagree

[Heatmiser]

My friends/family that have had arrhythmia have either had it corrected via medicine (after much trial and error, so do not get frustrated friend. Apparently this type of medicine is not as predictable as others) or via medical procedures that sounded super scary but actually were not a big deal in the end and made a tremendous difference. I have had a little arrhythmia, which frustrated me since I run, watch what I eat, etc, and I know how frightening that feeling is. I was on a beta blocker -- metropolal (sp, sorry) at one point and it fixed my issue. A neat side effect was that my resting pulse was about 40 which freaked out the girls who do intakes at the doctors office! I am now off it, the problem has not happened and my pulse is back in the mid 50s.

This will get fixed, OIP. Just be patient and be KIND to yourself.

PS - obviously (and I know I can be Captain Obvious) caffeine = your worst enemy

P.S. I apologize for being a douche with all of this. My brain works sometimes and I can see that I’m being an idiot.

[Boltx]

No apologies necessary, man. Take care of yourself and get well. I'm sure your cardiologist has discussed this with you, but depending on the type of arrthythmia, there are multiple treatment options, some can be curative. Talk to your doctor. We're here for ya.

[Heatmiser]

OIP, if you are too nice, I will get really worried about you. Please be your usual self so we all know you are ok! Best wishes, buddy.

MOJO!

[QSmokey]

Well, hell...my head races ALL the time. Drives the wife crazy. I also say things I shouldn't say. Welcome to THAT club, too. But you being nice and opening up *does* have me worried. That's not the OIP I've come to know and love.

Couldn't let this pass without offering my own brand of MOJO, old friend. Take care.

[oneinchpunch]

I’m not being nice or “opening up”. Such a stupid thread.

[QSmokey]

Oh, good. You must be feeling better. Going back into hiding now.

[Fleet]

You guys should look into sublingual GABA. Superior Source is very low dose. And perfect to calm the mind. I take it in addition to Serenity. Serenity is an E Oil blend of Lavender, Passionflower andf Chamomile. With a little L Theanine added. Its a perfect natural calming supplement and good for you.

On days where i really feel anxious i go with the Cheeba Chew Pure CBD chew. And i also really like Stokes Indica 5MG mints as they are virtually non psychoactive yet extremely calming. Ive had other edibles that were only 5MGs and got really high. But these are different. Its nice to get the relaxing benefits of Indica without a major high.

[oneinchpunch]

Where do you get the Cheeba Chews?

[Fleet]

I believe the main facility is in denver. Just go on their site and enter your zip. It will bring up dispensaries. I have tried probably 50 types of CBD. Even the charlottes web oil that was made for the little girl struggling with seizures. The Cheeba Chew pure CBD was the most potent and relaxing. I could feel it without being high. Of course i take the whole chew at once. Therapeutic dose is 50MG. Take it at lunch time and the rest of my afternoon and night is relaxed and stress free. I buy the whole box so they get a little cheaper. But still its 350$ a month.

[oneinchpunch]

I'll be back to the old me. Stopping the meds tomorrow

[Stinky Wizzleteats+]

I'm not sure if this is a threat or a warning.

[oneinchpunch]

It is both.
