Hello
I am new to this interresting forum and im going to share my story, on how this irritating state that i am in now occourd.
I had recently finished my crossfit education and was now looking for work. Finding a job was hard, and i took the last resort out... Working as a mover, moving boxes and pianos and replacing people into their new homes. The job would require me to run 5floors and pick up boxes of 30kg and sometimes two of them. We would even have to carry pianos at 300kg down 5floors, using each other and a strap inbetween
5first days were fine untill i got my big toe crushed in the lift! I was rushed to the hospital where i had my first episode of "Confusion / dizzyness" This happend after the doc have me a shot tetanus vaccine. It might have been anxiety more then anything, and it did pass away quite fast.
After about a month of recovery I would start working again. The work was hard and i had to skip my meals, i would normally eat around 7times aday, but this forced me to eat 2times within 10hour OF MAX EFFORT HUMAN WORK. The symptoms started to occour, mental confusion, brain fog, loss of balance, feeling bad and simply as if i wasent in myself... Eventhough it made me feel bad, i would continue working. Allthough working my ass off, i would come home consume a preworkout "Energy powder" and hit the gym lifting heavy aswell... come home and consume the second meal of the day
One day i gave up. I went to the doctor and my bloodpressure was meassured 170/90-80... I said off my job, and started to recover.
The symptoms were brain fog, confusion, and if light was alittle brigher then normal... Some where along the way i even cought a cold, that made a watery sound in my ear. A sound that i had for a week and went with the doctors with, they said it would pass. + i quite using amino acids and preoworkout powders as they may have been the reason to the increased BP
Sound passed and was replaced with a small amount of tinnitus! after amonth of getting the tinnitus, my symptoms slowly went away or completely vanished! My blood pressure was meassured 115-80-75 wich is very good! But some symptoms still persists.
- Tinnitus
- Brain fog
- As if im not 100% myself yet
- floaters in eye
- Symptom that has surpassed "light sensativity"
- Symptom that has surpassed "balance problem"
I dont know if i suffer from stress and/or anxiety after having had such high blood pressure. This might be the reason i am feeling abit off? nevertheless, is there anything out there that would help me to start focus and think clearly again... Before all this i was a philosophier, i would write and think about life in different ways... But now im like brain-dead, im only able to focus on "im feeling alittle off" or jeese i cant focus as before.
Any ideas guys?
