Had a heart attack and in hospital due to meth abuse, not serious

Hey my Bro,

So happy that your back home! I was shocked when I read what had happened after I got home from work today! I am an RN at Cedars-Sinai in Cardiology. Our hospital does the most heart transplants IN THE WORLD, and I work with the veteran Cardiologists that run the entire hospital's Cardiology programs. If you want to get treatment from the best of the best, just say the word! It sounds like you may have myocarditis/pericarditis from what you described. I hope you make a speedy recovery. They should have ordered troponins and hsCRP while you were in the hospital. If you have persistent symptoms, they will most-likely want you to take colchicine 0.6 mg BID or QD as needed, and at least should have ordered an echocardiogram or cardiac MRI. This is something that will subside, but it is going to take a pretty big toll on you energy-wise. Please let me know if you need anything at all man and I would be happy to help! <3<3<3


THIS IS AWESOME that is the type of reply I was waiting for. Somebody in the field that can give his/her opinion. Thank you for the great news! Of course HE WILL RECOVER. This IS NOT a heart problem, is something causing symptoms in that area but our @DLD is strong, young and healthy. In some time he will be fully recovered.
 
I am home, got early morning yesterday and have been sleeping. Very tired but my heart is ok, the problem was a very high white blood cell count, which scares me! They think there is an infection in my heart and lungs. I thank you so much❤

I will update you as test come back. It is so awesome to be back with my Family and the Brotherhood. Anyone who I was working with one on one feel free to send me a message.

I truly thought is was the end and I was completely at peace with it, what a wonderful thing to have faith to the point of belief, when death was knocking I was happy knowing I would be with my God❤ This truly is a joy as I do not fear death.

I am not out of the woods so prayers are so appreciated! I hope these test come back good.

Love to all my Brothers!
Stop smoking DLD you’ve changed so many lives, we can’t lose you, you are a legend...

I stop smoking four years ago. I’m happy I got a couple hours of sleep and I’m hoping I can get some more rest today. It’s frustrating because I have all the same symptoms so I’m really concerned with is something serious. But I am strong and I will come back better than I was before. Thank you to everyone who is pray for me and wish me good health, I will never forget this.

I am praying for you. You can find comfort in the Book of Psalms as well as the Book of John.

Btw do not PE as long as you’re having heart issues, I believe enlargement does strain the heart a bit
I've thought about this a lot recently. Is it hard on the heart just to have an erection? Probably not for short amounts of time but I wonder if extended periods of engorgement are bad for the heart? And therefore would having a larger penis be even harder on the heart? I wish there were studies or direct evidence to confirm or deny this.

You have the same symptoms but you have no fever. That means your body, if its an infection, has it contained under control. Perhaps is a small condition but it causes unpleasant symptoms in the cardio-respiratory area. Do not stress yourself, just rest and relax. That way little by little you will sleep more and more. Hope those test results come back soon.

Good to have you back, you must be good otherwise they wouldn't have let you go.
Maybe some lifestyle changes, more exercise, less of this and that.

Well, don't count their actions as valid though...our medical industry is corrupt, and for-profit ONLY. The way ER operates is about stabilizing the patient. As soon as your vitals are good and take exams and blood samples, they dismiss you. You become destabilized, come back again.

Thats why I always advise everybody if you feel like going back, GO BAKC. Make them do the job they are not doing. Medicine is supposed to be caring for the health and wellness of the patient, not about counting fucking pennies.

However, @DLD is good right now. He already slept a little and is talking to us. Now is a matter of waiting for those blood results to determine the course of action.

They let me go because it wasn’t a heart attack but the condition that there are a high percentage of white blood cells may be pointing to something much worse. Simply pray that it’s a simple infection and I’m back 100% very soon.

I was able to get like four hours of sleep so I do feel a bit better. Your diagnosis sounds very good and gives me a lot of confidence.❤️ Still scared but you guys are prayer warriors and keep coming through for me. Thank you to everyone who is wish me well.
 
You’ve been in so many people’s prayers!


And I feel like my brother believe me! There is so much love here it blows my mind. I’m so happy it’s not a heart condition but now just pray that the test come back negative on anything else. I so much appreciate this!
 
Edgar Cayce once said, "When you pray, you talk to God; when you meditate, God talks to you."
Having myself lived through meningitis, Multiple car wrecks, years of blood pressure at about 210/110, two Ol' Ladies and four boys!! (I just shuddered) I can tell you that praying, listening to God and then NOT blowing your doctors off can actually yield some damn good results.

SO damn glad you're back in the game brother and feeling half-way decent; now y'gotta listen to find out just WHY this life altering event was put here for you.
The causes and ramifications...I got faith in ya!

So happy you’re home with your family and can at least try to get some rest. Ever try to rest in a hospital? Impossible!
Your symptoms are puzzling for sure. Did they CT the area or only do an echo? Any fluid around the heart or lungs? It’s distressing when hospitals turn you out and leave you with more questions than answers but this is the way they operate unfortunately. Many times the insurance company forces their hand.
I’m praying for you my Brother.
 
Big Bro, so glad you seem to be recovering, even if it may be a slow road back to 100%!

If you're having lung issues, throw out any weed you may have smoked! So much of the legal and illegal weed these days is doused in pesticides and/or has fungal growth in it, and I fear may be the source of your current ills.

There may be a role for cannabis in your recovery, but if that's the case, edibles is the way. i'd still stay away from that for at least few weeks and stay away from inhalables (smoke and vapes) entirely until you're 100%.

More prayers and and fists in the air for you big bro!
