my heart beats fast

has freaked every new doctor out for decades, despite me always explaining that 110-130 bpm is my normal heart rate

lots of ECGs, then confuzzled docs saying my heart is quite good, just very quick
That's just it, they want everyone to fit into their "normal" box and everyone is different.

Not very good I’m afraid. I had a stroke early this year. It affected the optical nerves; not the eyesight. And the pressure within the eyes is also a bit high, which puts a strain on the already affected nerve. I have to take some eyedrops to lower the pressure, thus relieving the optical nerve and we will see again in 6 months when we run the same tests. We are hoping that this deterioration in the nerve is caused by the stroke and is not progressive. All in all I am thankful there is nothing more severe.

I can't like that my friend! You never even mentioned you had a stroke, we care you know! I'm optimistic for the best to happen for you! :wub::wub:

Please take good care of yourself.:cry:

Don’t worry sweetheart. I’m a fighter. [emoji8]

And sorry that you didn’t know about the stroke. But it passes quickly and I saw no reason back then to make a fuss about it.

Keep fighting my brother.

Also/too...

you share the info, we’ll make the fuss ;)

Hoping and praying for the best.

WARNING: Wife rant to follow!

I just really need to understand why, when consuming chips, a man need to root around in the bag like a dam truffle pig in the woods before choosing a suitable chip to FINALLY pull out and eat none too quietly!

Does he think there's a magic chip in there somewhere and he needs to find it? Does he just get off on fingering every chip in the bag? Does he like taking the risk that his wife will finally snap over all the crinkling of the dam bag?

I'm feeling pretty confidant tonight that his grave stone will read......Here lies a man who rooted in the chip bag way too long and loudly crunched the chip finally retrieved one too many times! :-x

so I mixed up my second batch of ol' salt nic last night.

sho'nuff . . . easier than crinkling a chip bag.

this time I prepped the benzoic crystals in a wee mortar and pestle.
and I used equipment that made sense for the operation.
and I added the benzoic in small cascading batches and stirred it in before adding more.

whole thing took under 20 min., from the "yeah, I'll do that now" to the walking away with a ding-dang-done.

You forget, even with his huge hands American chip bags are more than adequate for him to be able to get both hands in if he so chose. OMG that's probably coming next.
