Yep

[kimba1]

both connected the anerysm blocked the blood to my kidney and  it increased my blood preesure which restrict more blood .so eventually my kidney shut down.

the proper name is aortic anerysm, but I call it kidney failure to make it easy for myself. I strange part is i never knew anybody with kidney failure till I got it and now I`ve heard almost a dozen people with it. no wonder thier in such a high demand for them.

so If you think you threw out your back and your heartbeat is racing like crazy, go straight to the ER asap you literally got minutes if you got what i have.

It was crazy I was planning to sleep it off,but something in my head said go to the ER. the whole time nobody told me whats wrong so i didn`t know how bad it was till afew weeks later on my followup.

Kimba so glad you decided to go to the ER

a guy I work with...his brother law had a real bad "stomach ache" for days
he was in a lot of pain...sometimes bent over upper gut pain
finally his wife basically forced him to go to the hospital
he had some kind of anerysm right below his rib cage in the center
and he was dead that day at 57 years old
they said if he would have come in earlier that week
before it burst they probably could have saved him

my brother is like that....he almost refuses to go to the doctor or get regular checkups

[kimba1]

I'm stunned hearing this. I can't even tell you how many people tell me they know someone who got this. I had no idea how common this is. i never heard of this til my father had it and now me.

If they say don't take energy drinks, don't take them. Avoid coffee as well.

[kimba1]

sadly he did say it`s prefered I don`t drink coffee. I really really like coffee . Despite I`m told thiers no taste difference I swear decaf taste like cat urine.

[Xavier_Onassis]

Perhaps you should try different brands of decaf. Caffeine is rather bitter by itself.

There are always herbal teas.

i pretty much gave up coffee in Jan of this year.
i never drank coffee until about ten years ago
then it became part of my routine
i like about a quarter flavored creamer....and then my coffee
so many cool flavors now...
people at work tease that I have a "little coffee with my cream"
yeah i miss it....but hey...whats ya gonna do?

[Xavier_Onassis]

Read the label on those chem creamers sometime.

I sure hope Xanthin gum isn't bad for you.

Thanks but don't need to....like I said I quit drinking coffee.
Plus X-Gum was invented by the US Gvt & is accepted as safe by the US,
Canada, Europe, and many other countries. Of couse as it is with almost
anything some people have allergic reaction.
I suppose I actually never liked coffee and that why I
had to disguise the taste with all the creamers.

[Xavier_Onassis]

Xanthan gum derives its name from the strain of bacteria used during the fermentation process, Xanthomonas campestris. X. campestris is the same bacterium responsible for causing black rot to form on broccoli, cauliflower and other leafy vegetables. The bacteria forms a slimy substance which acts as a natural stabilizer or thickener.

Yummy!

There are some other things with longer names in Chem Cream as well. I use about a teaspoon a day in my morning coffee, but I try not to think about what is in the stuff.
