Hospital bound

[JackCollo]

Hi guys I know it's not really relevant to this but found my self at the hospital today hooked up to 3 different machines monitoring my hearts progress. They have found one or more of the valves in my heart isn't working very well and is causing my heart to click like an indicator. Also found an irregular heart beat which is fun.
Just thought I'd let you guys know

Cheers
Jack

Were you in pain or dizzy or something or is it just a routine examination that took you to the hospital?

[JackCollo]

I went to my gp originally with chest pain and then the gp sent me to the hospital to the emergency room to be admitted to hospital bc my gp suspected something more sinister at play. After an X-ray at the hospital they found one of my lungs has a hole in it and is leaking air into my chest cavity

That's no joke, 'cos usually that expands your chest cavity to the point you can't breathe anymore.

I'm bit puzzled, 'cos lungs developing a hole on it's own is a troubling condition.

Either way, I would take it seriously and investigate it all the way.
I hope you get better in no time.

Hi dom14
I too thought a pneumothorax was something requiring critical care (it's presented as one of those 1st Aid "nightmare-ish" situations), but it appears they can develop and resolve themselves, as per the following:

But it looks like SCUBA is off the cards permanently tho' Jack, which is a bit shite if that's your thing...
