I had some tea and then started to feel like i was going to fall over, i couldnt stand up, i couldnt balence, then within about 5-10seconds from my recall i started to go blind, Like when you get blood rush, The pain started to move alot, and really really hurting like being stabbed, Ran over then hit with a sledge hammer. I couldnt beather at that point, I was rushed into hospital, was put onto a life support, and then blood taken then went into xray, was to rest for 1hur 3min and my blood came back Positive = Blood Clot. I was resting and on a life support untill my heart and lung recover and the clot move, i had 4injections. 1 in the stumec, one in the chest, one in the leg, and one in my right arm. Witch was to thinen the blood. (dont remmber the name)
Now i went into have my C.a.t scan and it came back with blood clot in my right lung and my lung collasped.. they are putting it down to a stroke at the age of 21.
Blood taken again later that day and its come back negitive so all is well.
As some know, the above happend around a good month or two now. On thursday i had a letter from the doctor who had seen me and been treating me, i also had a report from him and my Doctor.
The bad news,
Well, I was told that your Heart is ment to stop growing around 25years of age, That would be Fully Developed. Well my heart is 7 years down, which = to 14 years of age, my heart stoped growning and that its smaller than it should be, this is what caused my problems, Blood clot and Lung Problem as my heart is trying to pump around my blood but cant cope with my sports, boxing, and training i had been doing.. They are going to be keep checking on that my heart is growing. if its not, then by the time im 42, my heart will stop, and no longer be able to Pump my blood around, i had a good chat with my doctor and the only way to sort my problem, over time if my heart dont grow correct, and my lung size dont grow correct, then i would need to have a heart transplant.
They are seeing this as a high risk, for my age atm, and the fact is if they try and operate now, it could kill me, So im on new tablets, and more drugs to try and help the blood get around and keep the strain from the heart to try and get it to grow better, and me be stronger,
I have lots of pain inside my chest, between the top of the left rib, and the bottem of the left side of my body, i feal very light headed and ive lost my apertite to eat..
its a bad monent for me, and to be told a age limit is kinda scary, but they are doing what they can..
i thought everyone that was abit worryed about what had happend, would like to know the out come.
They have said this isnt rear, and what scared me the most was a young 22 year old 2 weeks ago died of the same as whats wrong with me, but they didnt notice anything, and wasnt quick enuff to treat him correctly.
