Has anyone ever had this?

[sgreger1]

i'd get a stress test and an echo done atleast. no joke. happened to both of my parents more than once.

Ive had one recently and im completely healthy and my heart is beating perfectly, all my valves work etc. I just dont know wtf happened tonight.


@ Owens

"Some people become naturally prone to this, and it might not show up early in life. You never had this happen when you were in the Service?"

No ive never had this. In the service I did shit that was way, way, way, way, way, more exerting than what I did today and never had even the slightest problem which is why this weirds me out. But I had every single thing you listed there, which is what the paramedics also thought I had. Its just weird because ive never seemed to be sensitive to this before.


@ Condor:

Ive heard that. i've heard that you can attach the negative and then just tap it with the positive till it starts. i just didn't want to fry my bike. I've also heard that you can just leave the vehicle off and it will charge naturally if connected by jumpers. What was weird is that I got it started and rode it for a good 10 minutes, but the bat didn't charge. From what I gather R6 batteries take quite a while to charge. I'm just going to buy a charger tomorrow and be done with it. It's still parked down at my babysitters so i'm assuming it's safe for now. Just sucks. The wife already hates my motorcycle and this is just fuel for the fire for her.




@Frosted.

What service were you a combat medic in bro??? In the European army? (sorry for being ignorant but whatever it's called). I don't know about down there, but all the 68W (combat medics) i ever came across in the army, they just say take 800mg of ibuprofen and drink water lol. I am scheduled for an annual visit soon so I will be getting my full panel and everything else checked out.

I feel like the symptoms were very close to dehydration but I was hydrated. I think Owens nailed it with the hyperventilation. But what seems odd to me is that i've never had this despite having to do waaaaaaaaaaay more rigorous stuff in the past. Maybe it's just because I haven't been exercising lately or eating right.

I have a tip for you, sir.

You can jump a bike from a car. Hook the cables up, but DO NOT START either vehicle. Let it sit for a minute and then disconnect the cables, and then try the bike. sometimes it has to sit for a few minutes, but I have jumped my bike off a ton of times like that, no harm. Or get a trickle charger....

He has a Yamaha crotch rocket. I believe rice rockets have a six volt system, as opposed to Harleys etc that have a 12 volt system.

I can jump my Harley from my truck all day long, running or not, but I believe he is correct that in his case doing this will fry his electrical system.

Bingo. farking asians.... 12 volt systems will fry me if I try to jump it from a 12 vt car.

[sgreger1]

I still believe its all symptoms of hyperventilation. I see people all the time, ALL THE TIME, that come into the ER with the same symptoms after strenuous activity.

Especially since you have no prior history of cardiac episodes.

I think you are 100% correct. The experience seemed like I was dying but I really think it was just hyperventilation to the extreme. I have had stress echo's etc in the last 9 months and I am completely healthy in every possible way and on no medications. I must have just stepped over the line tonight. But good god, I have never prayed for my life as hard as I did tonight I was sure it was over. I will do anything and everything to never experience this again.

[Owens187]

I jump my VTR 1000 this way. I have always been afraid to start either with the cables still attached.... :shock:
Id never ride a Hardley :wink:

Freinds don't let freinds ride ricers. ESPECIALLY Hondas. :wink: :P

But hey, maybe a cheap plastic motorcycle thats worth nothing is just you're thing.... Maybe you were broke at the time and now just trying to make yourself feel better... :P

And.....

while yours isn't worth the PLASTIC that its made out of 10 years after production....

....mine goes UP in value every day!(limited edition, only 100 in existance)

Plastic motorcycles, like plastic guns, have no buisiness in this country.

:P :wink:

And here I waill call what Condors next comment will be: something about leaking oil, something about dependability, something about this certain thing that breaks all the time, something about pushing the bike home, yada yada yada. These "myths" all come from the days when AMF owned Harley Davidson. Look it up. Modern Harley's have none of these issues. Everybody in my family, and tons of my riding buddies - none of our bikes leak, break down, fall apart, start wars, fund holocaust, fuel terrorism, etc etc.. Most Harley's are more dependable than most automobiles. Some ricers just get but-hurt that they couldn't afford a real bike.

EDIT: razzing on Condor has thrown my spelling and grammar to sh*t...

[Frosted]

British Army mate. We're paramedic standard and still front line combat infantry as well (Fire Support Group GPMG, Milan anti-tank.) I did my medical training in 1993 so I'm a bit rusty. Did 12 years.

Got to admit though - I've never seen hyperventilation before but we'd treat yours as serious. You're a young fit man so lack of exercise should not be affecting you in this way. I'm actually seriously concerned that you see the doc.

Edit: Please bear in mind that I ain't no doc - but the only time I've felt like this is if I've been on the pop in a big way the night before. Sounds like a bad hangover/dehydration to me along with not eating enough. Your electrolytes (body salts) might be way out.........................or else you just had your first Thunder Frosted. :wink:

But your symptoms are classic heart attack symptoms.......without the pains in the chest.

Oh than we've probably had a common experience frosted! I was a forward observer (formally called a fire support specialist). In the US army they have in each infantry platoon a heavy weapons squad which includes someone with a 240B, a 249 SAW, a mortar team, a forward observer (me) to coordinate all the indirect fire support assets like mortars, artillery, combat helicopters and fastmovers, and a combat medic. So as the bastards of the group, me and the combat medics were really our own team since we were the only attatchments. I feel bad for you guys, carrying dudes in body armor that have been shot looks like a really sucky job lol, plus you gotta carry that aid bag around with you. But being friends with the medics always has it's advantages! (like when your in the field and theres limited supplies, so since your his boy you get first dibs on any medicine or treatment lol)


At first I thought it was a heart attack because I had the tingling in my arms, the light headedness etc but absolutely no chest pain. Then the tingling spread to my whole body and it slowly started shutting down, but still no chest pain, which was odd. The paramedics said my vitals were all normal but my heartrate was up and insisted I just needed to take slow deep breaths and after about an hour that fixed it without the need for anything else, but i'm going to my Dr soon anyways and am going to make sure I squeez every diagnostic test I can out of em just to be safe. I am way to healthy for things like that to be happening to me.

[truthwolf1]

IF you were sweating or even dry sweating you could of had a spike of water loss which sent alarm signals to every part of your body.
This happened to me once with very similar symptoms after moving a bunch of stuff up and down a hill. I was getting circles around my eyes and the strange feeling my entire body was shutting down.
After falling to my knees and somebody forcing me to drink some water I slowly came back to life.

[sgreger1]

I'v been dehydrated before and it was kind of like that with the cramping but I drank 2 bottles of water right prior to this happening. I don't know I think my electrolytes were down from not really eating enough. I've eaten nothing but some chille rieno's the last 2 days and like a quarter of a BMT sandwich from subway. It's werid, like I don't have the urge to eat anymore and have to force it. My body is just going weird and I am not sure why.


Another weird thing I noticed this morning: My right leg has this massive bruise on my calf muscle. Last night my legs siezed up as tight as they could and now this morning I have this massive bruise. I guess I could have bumped it and not noticed but I think it was from the cramping, is that even possible? God this is weird.

[truthwolf1]

IF you had water and not a major loss quickly then it is something else. Leg cramps/twitches during the night is associated with a mag deficiency.

[oarenj]

Do you have any history of Thyroid problems in your family?

[Bigblue1]

I had a similar experience a little over 6 year ago. Except I woke up feeling a lot like you described. But i also had a buzz in my ears and was totally incapable of doing anything. I was about to die. As I lived by my self. I was suppose to go to work. When I didn't show they sent somebody to get me. This is very common in the car business. nobody takes a saturday off. NOBODY. Anyway, paramedics came I ended up in the hospital for like 12-14 days if I remember right. They diagnosed me with rhabdomyolysis. There was no apparent cause tho. They said the muscles in my body had suffered trauma as if I had been dropped from a plain or crushed in a garbage truck. There best guess was that I got some infection that attacked my muscles. anyway here's a link.

And like said before go to a doctor sooner than later.

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: WTF!

Yeah dude, Not cool. But like you said totally thought i was stroking out and there was not a damn thing I could do about it. Now keep in mind i had just turned 28 at the time. If it had happened a day later I wouldn't be here. Nobody woulda been checking on me early on a sunday morning. But anyway It seems to me you were getting a lil taste of it yesterday. You really should get some blood work done to check your cpk levels and stuff.

[sgreger1]

Yah it just happened so quickly. My wife is out of town this week and I am alone in the house, but she was with me yesterday since my batery died. It happened so fast all I could utter was a grabled "9-11, 9-11, call 9-11" and then i sat in like a vegitative state untill they arrived, with my hands clenched tight and all my muscles contracting viciousely.
I'm calling my Dr right now to move the appointment up. My whole body is extremely sore, especially my stomach muscles and organs.

[desirexe]

Panic attack??? Going to your bike only to find the battery was probably stressful enough but then you freaked your body out a good 3 times by nearly crashing??? Sounds like an extreme emotional drain on your system. I may be way out in right field with my thinking but I've experienced a panic attack once on a plane and felt damn near death, I didn't lose conciousness but a lot of the other symptoms you experienced.
