Good news it's not my heart that's causing me to have these spells its my blood pressure my blood is thick and they put me on an aspirin regiment 1 everyday there hoping it helps thin it out and get my blood pressure back in control .I have to go back in and have my blood pressure checked again . if it's still high there going to put me on blood pressure medicine and possibly blood thinner . I'm hoping to be back online soon I had my net shut off until I get things straightened out with unemployment and work
