Well first it's good to see you're ok! I've had a uti put me in the hospital before but not like that, I passed out in my dr's office while driving my chair going into the waiting room and luckily my aid was keeping a good eye on me before I took out a few computers. She seen me pass out and took my hand off the joy stick just in time. But it was just the opposite for me my blood pressure was extremely low and that's why I passed out.
It's crazy being a quad! Mark Jackson RollinOn _____ From: William Willis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 20, 2008 5:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [QUAD-L] close call Hey guys. I had a really nasty experience this week and thought my end had come. I woke up Sunday morning with pain in my lower abdomen and a slightly nauseous feeling. I thought I just had a bug. Then my wife rolled me over on my back. That's when the nasty began. My entire abdomen went into violent spasms. I couldn't breath or talk and began gasping for breath. Then my head felt like a bomb. Then my wife says I zoned out and literally became a zombie. I thought I was dying. My wife tried to bring me around with no luck. She called the ambulance and I was rushed to the hospital. My BP was 180/120, it's usually 95/60. For about two hours I was completely out of it. Tests showed I had - you guessed it - a UTI. of course. all the other symptoms were AD. I've had the shakes and cold sweats many times before, but I have never experienced anything like this. I thought my time had come. The doc put me on levaquin, ditropan, and dantrolene. Only today have I begun to feel better. Have any of you guys experienced this? Larry Willis _____ Climb to the top of the charts! Play the word scramble challenge with star power.
