OK, so I've been having awful chest pains for a while, along with a hacking cough and spitting up blood. My abdomen feels tight and tender. Until recently all my joints were swollen and my throat was sore, but that went away when my left side started tingling and went numb. But it wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the pounding headaches and blurred vision. Although I guess the difficulty breathing is right up there.
I don't want to bother going to a hospital or seeing a doctor. So I figured I'd do just as well posting on an internet forum devoted to flashlights and electronics. I know nothing about most people here, but medical help from people whom I've never met, have unknown experience, and in some cases may be mentally ill, and who live 1,000-5,000 miles away must be just as useful, right?
:huh2:
Seriously people, what's up with this kind of stuff? I'm not writing about anything in particular CPF, I'm just reminded that you see posts all over the internet like this. Seems to me if you're having medical problems see a doctor or other official healthcare type person. Or for less serious medical questions there are always websites, message boards, and newsgroups with people who undoubtedly have more knowledge in the area than 90% of people on "other" boards.
