i hope its not something serious but really.... even if its simple dehydration or heat exhaustion, do you really want to goto a hh and drink? i dont think thats a smart idea and i think drinking is the worst thing you can do. if anything, skip it and rest at home with the ac running as i am sure there will be other gatherings.
i am in my late 30's and i too, mentally, feel like im still in my 20's but that was almost 2 decades ago. unless you really have been taking care of your body, its right around that time where you need to make some life style adjustments concerning your health.
no one can make you do anything but i strongly urge you to take caution and do what's best for your health.
thanks for your concern ....... that is why gods loves us above any other creature and give us grace..... because one or two of us are o.k..... just one or two of us out of 7 billion. wow
no it was the heat and pushing this older body to do the things it use to do... while over weigh and out of shape......... am going home in a few to just relax in the pool

Good to hear you are holding up man. Relaxing after that is a sound choice.
hey everyone, i had lunch today saw a couple of people playing basketball so they had an odd number 3. so they ask if i wanted to play...... i said yes ....
and then i played 3 game til 16 by one ( we won 2 ) it was over in like 45 minutes. then headed back to work ..... felt light headed, and everything was moving fast , was sweating a lot and then lost my balance and went to one knee..... i sat down on a bench and drink some cold vitamin water..... and got up in 15 minutes and went straight to the bathroom. after doing number two.... lay down on the floor in a feces position with room spinning......... now am here feeling sluggish but am alive.......
was that a stroke or a heart attack?or dehydation.? i did not have a water until when i sit down and i has breastfest too....
It sounds like it was heat related. It's hot out there and if you didn't stay hydrated while playing basketball then that's what it sounds like. Rest up and stay away from the heat if you can, and make sure to drink plenty of water.
You said that you do have a history of fainting.... have you ever gotten that addressed or had an EKG?? If not, you need to see your pmd. I would recommend that you see your pmd anyway, as soon as you can, just to get your BP, pulse and all that good stuff checked out.
Look in the mirror and stick out your tongue. Does it go to the right or left or straight. If straight you probably didn't have a stroke, but if it goes to the right or left get medical help ASAP.
Aspirin is good for a person who thinks they may have had a heart attack. These things are too serious to mess around with. Find a drug store and check your blood pressure and pulse or go for medical help. In both heart attacks and strokes, the faster you get to the problem the better.
I don't mean this as medical help. It is just the warning signs of things I have read about.
