lieze Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 Just had one come on.It was continuing...I put cold water on my brow and around my neck-couldn't really feel it I felt fuzzy all over.Got a glass of ice water and started drinking it and went into a "V" position reclining just slightly but legs up above the heart.BP was 112/64. Heart rate 98.As I elevated my legs I felt my heart beat a little harder and felt my breathing increase and next thing you know it was over!Yeah!I'm feeling a bit flaky here again if I have to go back into that position I will but it was so much better to perform maneuvers than to do nothing and have my body go through ****.I don't feel the extreme exhaustion and all the emotions that usually accompany my episodes that leave me feeling totally out of control.

hilbiligrl Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Hey Leieze (i hope i spelled that right... )I havent had an acute attack in the past few days, but, when i go into one, I am definitely trying this neat little trick. I am wondering if something so simple will actually help pull me out of a severe episode. Im glad you posted this, because, actually, i had already forgotten about this trick! I am going to have to seriously start a journal of 'trys' so that i can remember the pointers i read on here....Im glad it worked, you will have to let me know if it continues to work and I def let you know when i try it too. hope you are having a better day!hilbiligrl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
