My freckles are turning into liver spots!
Nah... I'm fine. (Ta)Sorry to hear that, FlakeNoir (((much healing and positive vibes)))
Oh hell no, joke away... I don't mind at all!Sorry to make jokes, Flake!
The heart condition isn't serious, is it Flake???!!Nah... I'm fine. (Ta)
Oh hell no, joke away... I don't mind at all!
I feel way too young to be having cholesterol problems and they really wouldn't matter so much if I didn't also have a heart condition. Oh well... life is meant to be lived on the (bacon) edge, right? Right?!
Nah... more of a nuisance than anything, going to be seeing a cardiologist again soon--so should probably work on my numbers a little before then.The heart condition isn't serious, is it Flake???!!
Well, they say laughter is good medicine!Nah... more of a nuisance than anything, going to be seeing a cardiologist again soon--so should probably work on my numbers a little before then.
This is true! (so long as it doesn't put me into tachycardia)Well, they say laughter is good medicine!
I had to look that up, Flake. You're scarin' me! You take care of yourself!!!!!This is true! (so long as it doesn't put me into tachycardia)
I'm just messing with you... it doesn't usually.
Isn't garlic good for everything? It should be.Uh oh. Is garlic supposed to be good for that?
It is very good for the heart and for blood pressure. My mom takes at least a clove of raw garlic every day. Cayenne pepper is good too.Isn't garlic good for everything? It should be.
Nah, I'm fine, really. I have weird heart rhythms, that's all. If it goes into tachycardia, then it will beat at around 225/bp minute until I take medicine.. sometimes other things will bring it back down. It usually puts me in hospital if I can't get it back down by myself. The longest it has lasted at that rate was 4 hours. That time was scary because they were going to give me a medication that would make it slow to about one or two beats per minute, which in effect feels like it stops.I had to look that up, Flake. You're scarin' me! You take care of yourself!!!!!
It must be hereditary, 'cuz I know you're not old. I'll pray for you every day!Nah, I'm fine, really. I have weird heart rhythms, that's all.

My mum and my cousin both have similar things, yar... my cousin had a pacemaker put in when she was 25.It must be hereditary, 'cuz I know you're not old. I'll pray for you every day!
Chocolate seems to be getting a conflicting wrap in this whole heart issue thing. Dark chocolate is my favourite kind and they say that it can help... so, I think I'll go with that piece of advice and totally ignore all the nay-sayers.As soon as someone i know has somekind of heartproblems i get worried. Because i know practically nothing about the subject except that it isn't allowed to stop. So Flake, take some care will you. (and some chocolate too of course.....)
Switch to dark chocolate-beer to red wine , and seriously look into the garlic and cayenne (just check with your doc to make sure they won't interfere with your meds)!My mum and my cousin both have similar things, yar... my cousin had a pacemaker put in when she was 25.
(Thanks, girl... I'll be fine though, Kiwi's are tough ol' birds.)

I was going to say Dark chocolate too. Supposed to be chock full of antioxidants or some such. And it's yummy.Switch to dark chocolate-beer to red wine , and seriously look into the garlic and cayenne (just check with your doc to make sure they won't interfere with your meds)!
