Prayer request
vanity | 8/26/2014 | self

Posted on 08/26/2014 12:47:17 PM PDT by Marie

Sorry folks, I'm not sure where to put this, but we've got a prayer request.

My 20 year old son has been in the hospital for the last few days. They didn't know what has started all of this, but he had a heart attack last night.

Right now, we're waiting for tests to come back and I'm scared out of my mind. He's just too young for this.

Fervent prayers for your son and for you and your family. Prayers that he is healed completely. Prayers for you as you worry and try to Let Go and Let God.

Heavy exercise (bike riding and mountain climbing) causing dehydration, followed by an 8 hour sitting session in an office chair, followed by three beers (causing more dehydration) then bed.

Stagnation + dehydration = blood clots = heart attack

To top it off, athletes have a lower-than-average resting heart rate, that can cut back on circulation and increase the risk.

(I’m just passing on information because I’m angry that NOBODY ever told me that these were risk factors)

Very sorry to hear this. I have a 20-year-old son, too. I’ll be praying for your son.

Fwiw, telling a 20-year-old that something is a bad idea doesn’t do much good ...

Update for the list:

He has pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas) and pericarditis (inflammation of the sack around the heart muscle).

Now they’re saying that he didn’t have a ‘heart attack’ but he had a ‘cardiac event’.

The difference is this. A ‘heart attack’ means that the blood vessles feeding the heart were blocked. A ‘cardiac event’ means that the heart is struggling and was damaged, but it’s not because of the blood vessels that feed the heart.

To a civilian, that’s not a big difference. It looks and feels all the same and the end result can be the same. Cardiac enzymes are elevated because the heart is damaged and in distress.

Apparently, it’s a huge difference the the medicals.

They still don’t know why.
