At the doctors. Ekg was good. Blood pressure low but healthy. About to run an ultrasound but chances are everything will be fine.
Doc said that when I'm coughing I constrict my chest so hard it's stopping the blood flow and causing me to pass out. Dude said laughingly to drink more water and take cough suppressants.
All good on the heart front.

You are correct and I lost some ground because of blacking out. Must have taken me another 8 miles to pass him

The frick kind of question is that? No. Ive never passed out taking a shite
Straining to take a shite can cause a "vagal maneuver" that can slow heart rate...people have died taking a shite before.
Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I think that is officially how Elvis died.
With the pills he was taking being a contributing factor to this happening.

Ever get a fecal syncope?
The first time I took trazadome to help me sleep I fell asleep on the toilet. When in to pee and just zoned out. Took a while for my husband to let me live it down.

Yeah, I have had it for about a year. Almost daily occurrence. I need sinus surgery which will help with the coughing, which then causes passing out.

Same road I went down! Ultrasound is painless, but it takes a few hours total. Pretty cool that you can see a cross section of your heard as it beats, the valves working and everything! Total diagnostics of your heart in real time.

Good news.
Only ultrasound I had was weird. I had a pain on my balls and the ultrasound was to make sure it wasn’t anything cancer related. The office was dimly lit with some soft music playing and the nurse/technician was super hot. It was like a cruel joke.

Certainly not, you're asking the OT for health advice.

Yes it is. It is very annoying. Especially while trying to sleep.
We're trying to gut it out but it is definitely negatively effecting both of ours sleep. She got up and went to one of the guest bedrooms last night.
