Hi There Its Tuesday and time to start the thread!!!!!
Hey Floyd...good for you running...I walked a 5K in the MS Walkathon.....it was great my daughter's team raised $5,000 and we had 51 people on her team...largest team, they interviewed her on TV.....however that night sitting in my kitchen talking to my daughter and her husband ....perfectly relaxed...I had a panic attack and passed out .....hit my head on the oven door handle and apparently twisted my whole right side and sprained my ankle.....glad it happened after the Walkathon.......however....it sure has been a nuisance this last week....My head had a big gooseegg on it and I did something to my right hip, but my Chiropractor is getting me back together. I walked for an hour in the pool today.
I sure wish that OH would fix the problem of NO PARAGRAPHS........it makes it harder to read everyone's postings..
I had a great 4 days in Iowa with my son and daughter-in-law...went to Little League games at Racoon Valley Little League...two games and then Soccer on Sunday.....also went to a Soccer game of my son's. He is the goalie.....I never liked being Mother of the Goalie...but they did win.
They are a very very physically active family.....my daughter in-law is training for two upcomiing Triathalons......not me.
I am trying to start behaving myself in eating ALL THE TIME.....and stay under 1,000 calorie a day.....not too easy...but that is what takes the weight off of me.
Hope you all have a great day.
Hugs, Marti

Hi sweet Margo....I have had Panic Attacks for about 30 years and they have no idea what causes them....I have had every test they can think of........there is thoughts that it has something to do with my breathing....because when I lie down....my oxygen levels fall...especially during the night when they test me....not sleep apnea.....just low oxygen levels.......most of my Panic attacks occur at around 5:00 in the morning, but lately I have been having the "pre-cursor" of an attack during the daytime......they are also considering that they recently changed my "generic" Paxil medication which for some reason works well for Panic Attacks...........they really have nothing to do with anxiety or "panic" that anyone knows of..........it is a Panic attack because you think you are going to die...because you can't breath.....it is pretty scary........
I haven't passed out from one for years, so this one was not good.....I apparently just stood up, grabbed tghe kitchen counter and said "OH NO" and fainted......I did feel the attack coming on and remembered it all....at least up until I passed out.
They thought I had a stroke.....but thankfully I did not.
I am doing much better and hopefully we will get it figured out.
Hugs, Marti

i guess my "from what?" was the wrong way to ask--i understand what you are describing and that they are not necessarily from "panic"--oh marti-thank God you were home and surrounded by family to watch over you ---
you know; your presence, or lack thereof, has been noticed...i am keeping your family in my prayers...you haven't talked of mike's health so i am hoping that no news is good news? and i know that you are on top of kathleeen's ms... and we don't hear about the texas contingent so am hoping again - no news good news thing.....
again dear one take care of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
btw--i see paragraphs!
