I just recently was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. Funny thing is I had , 2 to 3 weeks earlier, decided I need to lose a good bit of weight and get more active. I had started the eating better but not the active part when I landed in the hospital. I am now going over everything on the internet to find out how to live with this new condition, especially low sodium foods.
In my earlier years, I was fairly active playing multiple high school sports. In college I began lifting weights and still participated in intramural sports. Ater college became a police officer and that lasted 2 years - couldn't take the stress.
Got into radio and pretty much have sat on my butt since then.
I have a 10 year old and a 9 year old that I want to be able to keep up with. Now more than ever!!
a lot has happened in the last 2 years that have put much stress on me so that may have contributed to this CHF also. Wreck, then my position I had for over 20 years was eliminated, finally got a job making about half of what I was and hated the job itself. Wife came in one day and said she was done with me and the latest is she is moving and the young'uns when be about 40 mn from me now rather than right around the corner.
