Hello Everyine, I've been non-existent in here for a while, and unfortunately it's not because I just wanted to take a break. A few weeks ago, I went to my doctor after suffering from a persistent cough. She ordered me to the hospital ASAP. I just got out today. I spent over a week in cardiac ICU. It turns out I am suffering from viral Congestive Heart Failure. My heart is currently operating at 17% of it's total function, which is barely life sustaining. I am being placed on the heart transplant list and hopefully my story will have a happy ending. If not, you guys have been great and I appreciate all of you. Send me your prayers and maybe you might be stuck with the Paki for years to come. Thanks guys, love you guys.

Good luck Dan.

Doctors aren't flawless...they do make mistakes and they don't know everything there is to know. I'm not saying you shouldn't take their help at all..by all means take their help, but don't let anyone tell you your situation is impossible, transplant or no..don't give up. Stuff that they can't explain happens all the time.

And good luck, sincerely.

Go get checked out by a cardiologist. I was having chest pain and tingling in my left arm. I thought it was crazy for someone as young as me (29 yrs) to be feeling this so I took no chance at all and got checked out. Everything is fine, Thank God. I was DX with anxiety. I still worry from time to time, but I have faith that everything will be alright.

If you're worried Ram, go get checked out.

I have been checked out and all the Doctors tell me I am a healthy 23 year old with a healthy heart. I get short of breath now and then and I have the same tingling in my left arm and sometimes a heaviness in my chest.

I do drink and smoke (weed), so I think that could be causing me problems. I am working my best to correct that situation : / News like this really makes me rethink what I am doing.

Ram, it sounds like anxiety and some of your habits may cause that. Seriously. I use to get anxiety attacks when I was around 20 years old. At that time I use to smoke weed too. The doctor at that time told me that weed could cause people to feel anxious. Not everyone, but it does happen. Lay off of it.

Yo man. I've dealt with anxiety and panic attacks for a while now. I had a really bad experience with way too much LSD and it kind of triggered a whole ordeal related to hypochondria and anxiety. Not sure why it's happening to you, but I do know it's unpleasant.


The autonomic nervous system has two subsections or branches called the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system. It is these two branches of the nervous system which are directly involved in controlling the body's energy levels and preparation for action. Very simply put, the sympathetic nervous system is the fight/flight system which releases energy and gets the body "primed" for action while the parasympathetic nervous system is the restoring system which returns the body to a normal state.

One important point is that the sympathetic nervous system tends to be largely an all or none system. That is, when it is activated, all of its parts respond. In other words, either all symptoms are experienced or no symptoms are experienced; it is rare for changes to occur in one part of the body alone. This may explain why most panic attack involve many symptoms and not just one or two.

One of the major effects of the sympathetic nervous system is that it releases two chemicals called adrenalin and noradrenalin from the adrenal glands on the kidneys. These chemicals, in turn, are used as messengers by the sympathetic nervous system to continue activity so that once activity in the sympathetic nervous system begins, it often continues and increases for some time.


I've pretty much gotten over it without the use of drugs or anything else, but I did do two things that helped immensely. The first is exercise. All I do is run and play basketball as much as possible. The second thing I've done is meditate. Meditation is the number one thing a person can do to balance out their 2 nervous system branches, which is essentially your problem; an inbalance in the way your nervous system tries to protect you.

If you're interested here's a download link for an audio book on mindfulness by John Kabat-Zinn, with some guided meditations. Seriously, it's the best thing I've ever learned to do.

:lol Dude.

What kind of Pakistani are you anyway? I thought the only way you fuckers died was through suicide bombs. This is probably some ploy to attack our important transplant doctors.

I see through you Pakidan! I'm calling Homeland Security.

Wanna come with me to my appointment?? :)

Dan, when you get through this....and you will....I will come down and we can get some wings. We will just have to make Zak gets some so he doesn't steal Dio's. :lol

BTW...don't let me hear you say anything else but "I will get through this" You do and the minute you are all better I will beat your slurpee serving, jihad yelling, patchouli incense burning, "thank you,come again" ass and then take your 72 virgins and divide them up between Mouse, Dio, Zak, Johnny Blaze, KEDA, Melmart, CuckingFunt and the Mookie Crew. :)

You stay positive. :tu

I never thought how glad I'd be to sit in this rat race after all but here we are.
you've got folks praying for you and folks wishing you well Dan so we'll get through it man. With the powers that are in prayers and well wishes you'll be here with us for a long time to come man.

My heart is currently operating at 17% of it's total function, which is barely life sustaining. I am being placed on the heart transplant list and hopefully my story will have a happy ending.

Dude, this totally happened to Tony Stark and he wound up learning how to fly and bagging all the hot chicks.

You'll be fine, after all, those Slurpees ain't gonna serve themselves.

Buena Suerte Mi Amigo.

What the fuck dude?

Manny was right. The only logical solution to this is a BBQ Plate sale. You know we'll all get drunk, and someone is bound to get stabbed over looking at someone's "woman" wrong. Bam, there's your new heart.

I'm really sorry to hear that. I hadn't talked to you in a while and its been like three months since I chatted with your brother. You're in my thoughts and prayers. If you ever want to hang out and talk, call me. If you ever need to listen to someone talk, Manis.......

you should put up some of those jars, with xerox copies of your picture on them, in mexican restaurants around town

Bad idea. Put a picture of a Paki up and I bet people will think they are sponsoring terrorism isntead of helping him get a new heart. I'd love to see the reaction of the lapel flag pin set on that one :lol

Sweet baby Jeebus on a pogo stick Mel, think OUTSIDE the box.

Just darken up the Xerox a bit and say he's a Cuban exile who escaped Castro's jail by riding on an inner tube through shark infested waters during Katrina, and evaded Reno's/Clinton's deportation attempt and all the stress and strain means he needs a new ticker.

Flag pin set will be all over that like white on rice...

Either that or say he's a former Iraqi interpreter for the US who had to flee because Al-Queda has put a price on his head.

He'll need a turban for the picture though.......

And a bible in one hand and a pic of Rev Hagee in the other......

We could just put a nasty Jerry Curl wig on him and say he's the dude from Lost.

I got it get one of your car bomb buddies to switch hearts with you before he goes on his last ride. Tell him it will add 3 more women waiting for him in the after life.

Nah, tell him he will get another 72 virgins, because his heart will live on longer to carry out the jihad.

I usually don't come in the Club, so I just saw this thread for the first time.

There hasn't been a post in here from you, Pakidan, in a while. Is there an update?
I certainly wish you all the best!

And to those with anxiety...I'm right there with you.
I've never done a drug, and I rarely drink, so I can't say mine could be due to similar reasons.
Mind came on suddenly back in October, but I wasn't dx until January.
I'll have to get back in the habit of exercising regularly. Hopefully that will help!

But again, good luck to you, PD. Take care, and I'll be looking for an update!

Thanks Spurs Fan,

I am doing ok so far... My meds seem to be controlling the problem. I get another echo at the end of the month to check my heart function... but so far so good.

Sorry to hear about your heart trouble. Could it be a bad heart valve that can be corrected surgically, or is definite it is the heart as a whole?

31 is kinda young. I have had cataract surgery in both eyes and I am 44. I know it is not nearly as serious as your problem, but I came out well, and you will too.
Your situation urges me to the doctor to get a thorough check-up.

Do you have any type of insurance that will help you?

Some sort of fund raiser is in order.
