Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire What is the worst health issue you have had??

Heart dammit can't spell either

It's a bitch only being able to count to 7 now......


I guess to worst for me would be a Stent in my LAD artery.

food poisoning

Clogged heart artery. Stent put in Mar 13 99

I should of thrown in an unsuccessful back surgery as done at Walter Reed in September 2003. It has left my right leg very numb. I just saw an entry by another forum member about Charcot foot. It's something I need to look into. All I have to do is get someone from VA to return my telephone calls so we can have a discussion about this.

Stroke and bad lungs are the worse. Pain wise, kidney stones, two back surgeries, and a replaced shoulder

I got to be one of the lucky 5000 guys a year to get male breast cancer....between allergic reactions to 2 different chemos and the radiation I was one very sick puppy. Wife and daughter twice had the conversation of what do we do when Dad dies? Still here.

The worst and something I couldn't account for was 2 episodes, 6 months apart of SVT. It is spontaneous rapid heart beat of 140 or higher. I was dizzy and had chest pain. I called paramedics for both episode. The first time I converted from adenosine treatment, the second time I needed to be shocked. No rhyme or reason from the docs for it happening.
The ortho stuff I get. I know what I did and how I lived, it isn't life threatening.

Blood clot in the lungs this past summer.

Tore the left pectoral clean off the bone a bit more than a year ago.

Broke ankle in 2016

Cancer at 42. Blew out my knee about seven years ago. Threw a blood clot and went temporarily blind in left eye this year. Kidney stone this year. Diagnosed with Thrombocytosis this year. Grew a third ball recently. A pretty little blond woman did an ultrasound on my bag and said that it was nothing to worry about.

Hernia surgery when I was 5 years old. I had my annual a month or so ago and the blood work said all was good. A titanium liver apparently. Knock on wood...

Ruptured spleen I guess.

Going in on Friday to have polyps biopsied on my vocal cords.

Take your pick:

Brain tumor wrapped into spinal cord.
Lung cancer.
Bladder cancer.
Broken pelvis/arm,eye scocket. ribs.
Appendix/ gall bladder removal
Hernia
Depression from above. GW

Surgery on both knees, both shoulders, left ankle, right hand.
Now its arthritis that's the problem.

Nothing compared to some of what I've been reading. Crushed my right leg in a debarker cylinder, back surgery, pneumonia, shingles, and arthritis in the knees, shoulders and hands. Healthy as a horse otherwise!

Spinal fusion followed by an infection where I reacted to the antibiotic and was in a coma for a week not expected to wake up. Infection affected hips, knees and feet. Pain ten years later. Two years ago, stent, aortic valve replacement where they messed up the electrics and heart stopped. Pacemaker added. Now, a-fib/flutter. Just had an ablation.
Now, need another knee, cataract removed so, as they say, getting old ain’t for sissies and I’m only 78.

April 3rd 2011 MC accident. I got broke up / cut up pretty good and split my helmet right down the middle. I did get a free helo ride to the trauma center though.

As an adult, heart attack.
