I went to Port Vale to watch the match yesterday and during the game i started having heart palpitations. I tried to forget about it and drove home. When i got home i started having chest pains, i was short of breath and i had pins and needles down my left arm. My heart still had palpitations. Its still the same this morning and i'm worried something is wrong. My mum wants to drag me to the hospital but i'm too scared to go.  :(

awww dont be scared worth checking it out .. its probably a panic attack or a virus .. it happened to me when I was a lot younger ... big hug

Erm... I don't want to sound horrible, but posting about it on here isn't going to help.

Go to the hospital, you can't put a price on your health. If it turns out to be nothing then so be it, but at least you'll have had it checked out.

Get yourself to A and E and get it checked out Toni.

I agree with Fatbury  :shock:

I don't think this is the case, but lets just say that the worst case scenario is true and there is a problem with you heart. It's not going to go away by sitting at home. The hospital is the best place for you to get it sorted out.

Get yourself checked out.

best course of action

Careful, you'll be heading for a big hug from Fatbury..  :D

 Batch...I don't think the potential pitfalls of offering medical advice on an internet forum are covered by your disclaimer.

Not being funny but posting it on an internet forum is not going to make you feel any better. Get down the hospital. better to be safe than sorry!

 You never know, a problem shared is a problem halved.....

Or, as Frank Spencer put: 'A trouble shared, is a trouble doubled'...

I went to the hospital in the end, only because i was made to go. It turns out i had a massive panic attack because of Swindon yesterday. Thats what the people in A & E said.

They saw you quickly.....

     If STFC gives you a panic attack, then I'd steer clear of Fatbury...

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Thats dedication. I dont let it get to me that much.

I was seen straight away and the doctor said that because i was getting nervous everytime Port Vale were getting towards goal and because Swindon lost when i probably expected Swindon to win brought on a panic attack. I have to be careful going to football too.

Really??? I found the whole situation hilarious.

If yesterday gave you a panic attack you must have been well and truly fucked up the season before last....................... :D

I'd avoid going to Leeds away as well!

:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:
no never fail to entertain toni

I've got my tickets for Leeds and i have a season ticket at Swindon but i'm angry and upset cos i have to cut back on watching Swindon. As they're the ones causing panic attacks then it isn't good for my heart if i keep going to watch them. I'm fuming that i have to cut back!  :evil:

Don't ever meet fatbury then...I get a panic attack whenever he walks into the pub

:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Is this a wind up?

Is what a wind up?

Seconded.  :?

i dont think he believes that anyone could be that daft

Swindon being bad for your health?? There's a new one.

I'm being serious. I've been warned by the doctor at A & E this morning. Plus, if you think about it, we are the 5th most stressful team to follow in the country

Toni, I used to get panic attacks quite easily. Not about Swindon but unimportant stuff like failing university and being hideously in debt. I found the best thing was to self medicate. Wine and or Ketamine are the best. Weed takes the edge off a bit but isn't ideal.

I've never ever had panic attacks in my life. Yesterday during the game was the first time ever.

I wouldn't worry about it then. Probably just a one off thing.

According to the doctor and nurse though, seeing as Swindon was the cause of it, it could happen more regular if i go to many matches.

i'd stay away from men too toni, as an orgasm may trigger palpatations again.

Well then don't go  :D .

I don't think you've got many other options than
a) go and risk it. or
b) don't go and stay at home.

c) get pissed before the game, takes the edge off the nerves.

Did your doctor not think too tell you that you need to change your diet, exercise more, get more sleep, cut out caffeine, etc. etc.

"Sorry i can't go to football this weekend dad, my doctor advises against it"  :soapy tit wank: I'm sorry but this is absurd.

No cos everything else is fine. I'm healthy and everything. However, too many of these heart palpitations can result in me getting a heart attack so i have to cut down the things that make me nervous/panicky.

Taking up knitting it is then.

Anti anxiety tablets?

I'm on diazepam but i can't take too much cos they are the easiest drug to get addicted to. I can only take a certain amount. I still have to go to footie though as i have a season ticket. If it makes it worse then so be it but i'm not wasting money but not going to games and wasting over half of my season ticket!

Worrying about it won't help though...

I know. I'm not worrying about it much now cos i've been checked out.

Are you worried that your worrying about it?





 :wink:

diazepam rules.

p.s. you drive like a old lady toni

Crikey, it all happens on this forum!

I have on average 37 heart attacks a game anyway....

Is that all?

Can we count temper tantrums as well?  :D

Yeah well I have 40, and catch aids like 5 times.

I wouldnt say they were tantrums :oops:

The ref deserved all the abuse he got!

Prob from the County Hotel..............

As you never make it to the match  :mrgreen:

That's why I don't go to the match, there's only so much aids my arse can take.

Excuse me! How do you know what i drive like?!  :P  :D

I'm guessing he saw you?

Yeah and I went past toni, we beeped as you had town stuff up but you choose to ignore us.

apparently i overtook you a few times then followed you to the ground (cheers, didn't have to use any directions)

Oh sorry. We don't chat to any rif raf.  :wink:  :P  :D  What car were you driving?

A BMW.

Bloody riff raff?!?!

Ahh yes i remember. You passed us several times. Sorry i didn't toot.

What car were you driving then? I didn't notice any car following me. You're lucky cos i had never been there before i might have got you lost!  :soapy tit wank:
I was following my sat nav.

i was driving a bugatti veyron

Sorry. I'm joking. I'm sorry i didn't toot but i'm a bit weary in case it is home supporters cos we normally get trouble from home supporters whenever we go away.

....and I went with Steve in his Aston Martin!

I didn't notice anyone following me. I don't mind though - just glad i didn't get you lost!  :soapy tit wank:

:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

    Good for you Toni...concentrate on the road, not poncing about tooting and waving at people......its dangerous out there.

I do normally though. Until i got abuse one time from some home supporters when i was on the way back from a game once.

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: At least it not serious.

If people hadn't met you I'd swear you were somebodies alter-ego taking the piss.

Anyway., we'll have to introduce you to angry ginger lad who sometimes stands in seat M-fortysomething in the Town End. His rage must surely cause his heart undue stress. The cardiac unit could be busy with you two.

I had to keep stopping for toilet breaks from my three mates who were drinking! We beeped a grumpy old git with a swindon flag and he also ignored us, I think we look menacing or something

Well i'm sorry. I promise if i see you again i won't ignore you.  :)

Please stop saying sorry!!

Sorry you feel that way Bushey.

So you had changed car by the time you followed me to the ground then Sonic?!!  :P

Bushey - the grumpy old git was probably me!  :old: Reactions are slow at my age!

Dont think it was you, had a scarf in the back window?!

Maverick looks a bit like Timothy Claypole from Rentaghost 8)

I hope that helps

ha ha ha it wasnt him, I spoke to Mav at the cheltenham game

Yep - always drive to away games with a scarf in the back window!

Then you are a grumpy git my friend!  :D

Can one of you geeks draw on me specs please?!!  8)

Guilty as charged!  :evil:

i'm ginger and i sit in m-something in the town end. and i stand up. not in the forties though - are there two of us?

You have my condolances obviously (:)) but somebody else on here has already owned up to it probably being them. I'll shout out random TEF usernames until he turns around, then we'll know)

Well glad to hear you are ok .. looks like my panic attack diagnosis was right .. you dont need to cut back on football .. just need someone to keep you calm during games ... like a 2 goals a game striker  :)

or you.

:chunder:

indeed

I want to go to Wycombe away in the cup (i've been there twice in the past) and my mum wants to go too but shes worried about taking me in case i have another panic attack!  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

She was talking about writing to Sturrock and telling him to get the team in gear so it stops an attack coming.  :soapy tit wank:

God knows what your going to be like in Leeds...

I know. I'll probably have a heart attack up there.

Better book your bed at the Hotel St James' ready in preparation.

this one fred? not her finest work

   I don't know.... panic Attack at Port Vale....brilliant.

This is ace !
