Guest guest Posted January 14, 2003 Report Share Posted January 14, 2003 Telling the general public to do this when it may kill you is bad advise. This is a direct quote from the article....... " If you were a doctor and knew exactly what you were doing, it might help save your life. If, however, you are not a physician and you misjudge the kind of cardiac event you're experiencing, cough CPR could kill. This " helpful " e-mail could help you right into a grave. " " The American Heart Association does not recommend that the public use this method in a situation where there is no medical supervision.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2003 Report Share Posted January 14, 2003 Hi again everyone; Hello again Hank.I must Clarify one thing though. I never had a heart attack and i only have a bad rythm(VT etc) so i don't know how a cough would affect during a heart attack but in my case when i get a BAD RTHYM it takes me out of it.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2003 Report Share Posted June 13, 2003 > Hey, I have a new board if you'd like to join it!

What is so important about running a board on a host that is extremely pop-up ad oriented? Geesh, I took a look at your board and got a alert message that said since I am running a " pop-up " blocker I would get the annoying message on every screen I click on until I disabled my " pop-up blocker " . So my choices were getting the annoying alert message on every screen, or get " pop-up " ads on every screen. My personal opinion is that isn't a very good way to " win friends and influence people " . No thanks. At least isn't that annoying. M.

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Many(most) of us have walked in or taken care of those with problems with for years or even decades. We speak from a lot of experience-unique on the web as far as I can tell. I personally have been doing this for 43 years and maybe in my old age tend to get upset with folks who dont see the light shining from this site sooner so they can get better sooner. Yeh I know this is not very good Englsih. Anyway I apologize if I have been huffy with folks on here-I get frustrated with those who don't seem to hear or read what we say or have in our files. Maybe someone should look into getting the DASH book into an ebook? ************************************** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
