Damn I have had a real rough year so far and we are only in the middle of Feb. I was in bed for the first 5 weeks of this yr. Had the flu 2 times one lasting 8-9 days and the other 6-7. In between the flu I trained 2 times. Once chest, shoulders and tri's. The other quads using a leg press.
The day I worked chest that night all of a sudden pain hits me like a sledge hammer in the neck and shoulders. It was so bed it was giving me headaches to the point I couldn't keep my balance and would fall if on my feet for more then 1-2 minutes. This continued for 9 days and then the flu hit's me for a second time. The first day I feel better after the 2nd flu I train legs on the leg press. That night my knees and ankles are shot to the point i can't stand or walk.
So I have seen the Dr 5 straight weeks in a row. I have severe Osteoarthritis in my neck, shoulders, ankles and knees. Also find out I'm a diabetic. Now I'm having low blood pressure issues and with a high resting heart rate which that can't figure out what the hells the problem. The above two just came on in the past 4 weeks. blood pressure normally mid 110's over low 70's. Heart rate normally around high 70's. Every week one has gone up and one down. Yesterday Resting heart rate 121, BP 92/59.
Thank I'm done. Now I'm afraid to do any cardio because of such a high RHR and afraid to lift because it aggravates the Osteoarthritis which lands me in bed.
Fuck how can you just wake up one morning and bingo your body and you have gone to shit.
Sorry for the vent but it is so frustrating
