Was eating breakfast this morning when I started having a cramping sensation in my chest, trouble breathing, and feelings of lightheadedness. The staff at the dining hall I was at called the paramedics and now I'm at UT medical center. They say I was probably dehydrated or similar. Blood pressure and heartbeat levels are normal.

Anyone ever have this happen to them? I'm scared to death. I'm 21; this shouldn't be happening.

Sounds like anxiety.

Did they do an ekg? My son had similar symptoms, and it turned out to be wolfe-parkinson-white syndrome. Only showed up on one ekg out of many, so it was a fluke they even caught it.

Just did. Waiting on the results.

What in the world is wolfe-parkinson-white syndrome?

Sounds like a panic attack.

As someone who suffered/s from an anxiety disorder, panic attacks feel VERY similar to a heart attack. When I first started having them I felt like I was dying.

I have anxiety as well and take medication for it. Any way to limit or control them? This scared the absolute ever living sh.it out of me.

I was diagnosed with the disorder and medicated in the same trip. I thought I had a heart condition.

I took paroxetine (paxil) for two years and it almost ruined my life besides making me fat. I quit taking it cold turkey and suffered through the ridiculous six week withdrawal period of electric shock sensations in my brain, vivid nightmares and random bouts of vertigo.

I've just developed a better sense of what causes stress in my life and have improved how I deal with said stress. I haven't had a panic attack in over two years and haven't taken any medication over the same time frame. As a reference , before I was medicated I was having a panic attack multiple times a day, everyday.

If your family has a history of heart conditions, keep it checked. Even if they do diagnose you  with anxiety, stay on top of it. I was wrongly diagnosed with fibro in my early 30's and had a heart attack at 37. It almost cost me my life, because I waited to go to the hospital thinking it was just fibro acting up. In actuality, I had blockages, but my dr ignored my family's heart history and blew it off because of my age.

      Bryce Young - High Ankle Sprain, out minimum 1 week

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Bryce hasn't done a single thing to prove he deserves to have his option picked up.  I'd have less of an issue with us declining the option and bringing him back as the starter next year than I would have us picking up that option, as that means he's on our cap books for the next 2 years instead of 1, even if he's cut before year 5. Tua threw for 3,500 yards with a 25-8 TD-INT ratio in just 13 starts the year before they picked up his option, and then threw for over 4,600 yards before they gave him his extension. Kyler threw for 3,722, 3,971, and 3,787 in 16, 16, and 14 games (while rushing for 544, 819, and 423 in those seasons) before they picked up his option and then signed him to an extension before year 4. Jones threw for 3,200 yards with a 3-1 TD-INT ratio with another 700 yards and 7 TDs rushing in year 4 before they signed him to his extension. Bryce has thrown for 2,877 and 2,400 yards in 16 and 12 starts his two seasons, while being on pace for 3,128 yards in a 17 game season so far this year. The closest comparison to any of them was Jones, who while he's turned it around this year, is someone I think everyone can agree was not a player who deserved that extension after that season. If people think those other QB's having their options picked up and/or given extensions were a mistake, in what world can you look at what Bryce has done and make any rational argument for him even being brought back as our starter next year, let alone also picking up his option that would cost us about $27 million fully guaranteed.

      Trade for a QB?

      I don't think we would actually play Hooker but hopefully we also just don't see. I don't view Dalton/Bryce as a worse option than Winston/Howell. I just think we disagree on this specific subject is all.

      I guarantee tepper would fire him if we lost out and he’d be justified
