Was watching one of those sort of horridly-fascinating shows last night on TV that is about hoarders, except this one is about pet hoarders. They visited a couple's house who had 24 cats. The vet who was talking to the couple and she went into the room where the catboxes were, and commented on the smell, and she had handheld meter that she set down on the floor. It measured ammonia in the air.
I know exactly how you feel. The only rooms that aren't messy at my place are the bathrooms & the babys room lol! I work full time & when i get home I'm like why bother?.. Hopefully i get a day or two cleaning spurt & get it done!
I also had one scary episode while laying in bed. I hadn't fallen asleep yet, and all of a sudden I needed to gasp for air. It lasted maybe 4-5 seconds. During the episode I was able to suck in a little air but it didn't help any and it stopped about a second or two later, then I was fine other than being a little startled. I was scared that it could be sinus pause, but I have had a normal Holter and haven't had an episode like this since. Can sinus pause make you gasp for air?
So.... my husband's parents are hoarders and I've never been to their house but our daughter has. She's 3 years old. We have a little boy on the way and I just don't know if I want my kids going over there especially if I'm not allowed to.. Idk how bad the situation is and I know my husband is embarrassed. I've never talked to my in laws about it. They make me uncomfortable as is. I have been distant from them for the last couple months.
m experiencing episodes of breathing difficulties. Not the typical asthma type though inhalers work. Each major episode started at night and lasted 6-2 weeks. I wake up with a feeling of being totally out of breath and the air lacks oxygen. It's difficult to exhale with the normal day-to-day breathing, but no problem with a bit more force. Still, it feels like the air lacks oxygen. My breathing always stops somewhere at exhaling and I actively have to breath again.
our body doesnt have calender dates nor does it know calender dates...so isnt 10 weeks fine?or it can take 2 weeks more to be sure?pls comment?
1 more info . . . after i had vaginal sex with that friend of mine...i got paranoid and asked her to test and she tested 1 week after our incident then again after 3 weeks... she tested...it was negative...........
i had two tests after tht vaginal episode..... one at 7 weeks then 10 weeks...both negative...
This is the first time the dialtone of the phone sounded pitchless, left ear was fine. The right ear sounded as if someone was mildly blowing air into my ear. Human voices sounded robotic, especially women and children. I went to an audiologist at this point, to rule out any major issue. They checked my hearing and the result came back normal. Unforuntately(fortunately) when I went for the audiology test that particulary day it went away, hence the normal results. It never returned after that.
I caught my breadth very quickly-maybe 2 to 3 seconds later and the episode was over. It surprised me as this was the only time that I was awake when the episode occured.
The fear I feel when I realize that over the several moments I will be fighting to get air into my lungs is the worst fear I have felt my whole life and I don't want it to happen again.
I agree with Jaquta, it will be interesting to read the expert's response... where is that fellow....
But seriously, I would have to say that the answer to your question depends on whether or not there is any evidence of mood cycling before this.
Your family member might want to read up about cyclothymia and hypomania which are milder forms of mood cycling. If you have access to a library I like the book "Why Am I Still Depressed?
But me I would just go to a family members and stay there for a bit. Hoarders have a weird attachment to their items.
A healthy 63 year old female of normal weight, who had a normal heart checkup 3 years ago, I had to do some unusually strenuous work one day last week, involving hauling many buckets of water. That evening, I felt like I couldn't take in enough air; and trying to inhale deeply hurt in the area of the lungs. As I currently have no insurance or physician, I just tried resting. It was better the next day and the symptoms disappeared in another day.
hiv is not transmitted outside the body. once exposed to air, it becomes inactive and unable to infect.
The only risks for HIV are to have unprotected vaginal or anal sex or to share IV needles to inject drugs. Air and saliva inactivate the virus. So, exposure 1. No risk from a hand job. Air is present. Exposure 2. No risk as well as the head of your penis was always covered and you wouldn't get HIV from an inside out condom, it was exposed to air. That simply isn't a way it would transmit and transmission only happens during unprotected intercourse and INSIDE the body.
As a non-professional, it's impossible for us to determine what you might be experiencing. "Hard and fast", how fast is it? The next time you have an episode, count the beats. This is very important! Also, does it begin and stop abruptly, or does it increase and dedrease over a period of time. Keeping track of this, writing it down in a log with dates, time, duration, etc. will help your physician in diagnosing your condition. Good luck!
