Please. I need your help. Serious question.

[Krozone]

This particular question may not belong in this forum. Whereas I feel more comfortable discussing it here due to the factors involved.

Last thursday while at the Gym I was working chest. Moerate weight.
I completed my chest routine with Cable flies when on the last rep I fealt a Shooting pain run up my neck into my head. I released the cables at once and dropped to one knee. I nearly passed out and took me about 10 minutes to walk to the Bathroom where I ran cold water over the back of my head.

Since that time I was in Montreal for a family reunion.

Came back yesterday and went to the gym about 30 minutes ago.

Today I started with Arms.
Preacher Curl 45lbs on each side to start.

On the 4th rep the same thing occured.

Excruciating pain. It fealt like what I can only describe as a Pinched Nerve that shot from the lower part of the rear right side of my neck to close to the top of my head. Moderate swelling. Subsides in a matter of minutes though.

At this time. I am just feeling abit stunned. No longer dizzy or experiencing a headacke.

This seroiuslly hinders my attitude in the gym when it comes to Pushing myself at the currrent time.


Currently on the following
Fina 100mgEOD, and Winny

Taking the following supplements.

Interactive Caffeine 200mg Tablets 1/day
Ephedrine Hydrochloride 8mg 5/day
Asprin 1/day
Glucosamine Sulfate "Double Strenght" 1000mg, 4/day
Shark Cartilage "750mg" 2/day
ALA 4 per day

Water close to 1.5 gallons.


Please, if any of you have experienced this or a similar problem PLEASE reply. Either to this post or to my email here at Elite.

I am planning on visiting my Family Doctor tomorrow.

My mother, grandmother and aunt (all on my Monthers side) died of a Brain Anirism (sp).

Thanks in advance.

Kro!

damn bro...that doesn't sound too good. I don't have any answers for you, or experience, but I'll keep it at the top for ya.

well from the description you gave and b/c you were doing cable flies, i think you probably strained your trapezius muscle

its innervation runs down from your cervicals (upper neck) down to your shoulder.

remember, pain is just nerves firing. and its firing for some reason. either you damaged the nerve, strained the muscle that the nerve innervates, or possibly having spasm due to low potassium, calcium, magnesium levels (electrolytes)

go to the doctor.

Anyone else?

Kak gave you a good explanation. Going to see a doc is the best thing you can do.

to better explain this, your skeletal muscles depend highly on sodium and calcium channels opening/closing etc.

so honestly, since you are on some diuretic drugs (ephedrine, winny etc) you might wanna look into that

Wait until tomorrow to see your doctor. Even if there was one on here, he wouldnt attempt to diagnose you based on a few posts. You just cant. One piece of advice though, do not lie to him about your drug use if you believe it may jeopordize your health, mabye even your life based on your family history.

go to the doctor.

Yep, go to the doctor and consider seeing a chiro.

It almost sounds like you may have pulled a rib up high from your description. I did this doing shrugs once and it put me on the floor. It made it tough to get a breath.
