Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[triadvolfan]

Has anyone had "life changing" effects from using a CPAP? The last two years or so I haven't felt right. Literally have no energy and want to nap constantly at 27 years old. I stopped going to the gym due to lack of energy which hasn't helped my overall health resulting in fatty liver and high BP. I had a sleep lab study done this past week and they diagnosed OSA and want me to do another study with a CPAP. They seem like a pain and I'm skeptical that it will make me feel that much better. Wanted to get people's thoughts on if they will really make a difference for me.

It's helped my father a lot. He wasn't sleeping well for years until he got one. Life changing is probably the way he'd describe it.

I can't like this one because @Weezer will judge me but glad you are posting some photos for your people.

Hey, y’all! I’m sorry if you were worried about me with me not being on! @VOLSONLY stopped by the library today while I was trying to get a million books out of the book drop on my first day back at work. (He looked familiar so I kept going through all the kids I taught because they’re always coming around expecting me to know how they look grown up because they think I know everything. Then he mentioned my dad so I am thinking whose kid is this. Then he said Volnation, and the light came on because I really don’t know everything. I wanted to run and give him a hug, but I really didn’t have the energy.) He said y’all had been worried. I’m sorry! I have just had so much besides me going on. My dad also in the hospital. He will be 86 next week and has only went to the doctor in the last few years for high blood pressure and few times for anxiety. He is in shock that he is so weak still. My husband missed 3 weeks work with covid, worked a week and then missed last week with a stomach virus he picked up. Well, plus the sinus infection we had between the other virus (flu?) we had at the end of December. Then there’s our son and DIL divorcing every other week. She likes to send him to us. Anyway, I think I slept two weeks with the covid except when blowing my nose from the sinus infection. When we could get up I wanted to get to the doctor for an antibiotic. He had one here that he had not taken once when the doctor prescribed it. But he got over his infection. Called my doctor and 7 to 10 days! So we went to an urgent care in Jasper. Before I could get my sob story out, she put the oxygen thing on my finger and ran out of the room. The doctor came in and said loudly, “We’re calling an ambulance! I don’t have the equipment here for this!” Granted my brain was not working well, but I asked if my husband could not just drive me right down the road to the ER? She got all hysterical and said we would have to sign all kinds of papers for her to let me leave there. I was like okay. So she went out and scared my husband to death. So ambulance took me to Parkridge in Jasper so I could wait 8 hours to be transported to Chattanooga. Double pneumonia, and I had no idea because I have had trouble breathing since the blood clots in my lungs. The first day I talked to the doctor I told him I went in for a sinus infection. He said it doesn’t matter if your in China or Africa or wherever it is always a sinus infection. When being released, I brought up the sinus infection. He said that he wished he had known! LOL. I finally got an antibiotic!

I just have not been back on because I am not my normal sweet self. The doctor told me it could take months to get back to normal. So months to get back to my normal chronic fatigue self. Plus trying to deal with everything else. Frustrated with GA winning as bad as I hate AL. And with all the NIL and the player carousel. Didn’t want to read all the bad stuff right now. Anyone got some good news for me? Football or personal?

And, Volsonly, please come back when I am more myself! Usually people say I always smile and make them feel welcome wherever or whenever!

So HAPPY TO SEE YOU POSTING!!! YAY!!!! I do hope you are fully recovered sooner rather than later and look forward to reading more posts when you feel a little better.


BOOM!!!!!

I wondered who....
Thanks!

Glad to see you're doing better. You've missed a lot of life-altering stuff on here. Everything from in-grown toenails to what non-binary means. Even got around to football occasionally. Continued prayers for you and your family. God Bless!

I’m sorry if I missed anyone’s post! I thank you for the prayers and caring. I didn’t realize Volsonly knew I was in the hospital. Glad I live in a small town! Thank you for updating them for me, Volsonly!

We have eyes everywhere, SaS.

We are not beating Auburn unless they just completely 'ish the bed, but if we can keep it close and get revenge on Arky and beat GA, we may still keep our 3 seed. Looking back at a couple of our close losses, some due to poor refs, really could have changed things... TX and TXtech should have been W's...
Hopefully we won't slip past a 4 seed and are ready to make a run. Not sure what to think about the SEC tourney this year....

Since we've devolved into just throwing out hot celebrities... Alexandra Daddario.

That's my girl jackass. Back it up or get cut.

Ah, a negative statement. I never would have guessed it coming from you.

 

[bignewt]

Nothing matters less than the conference tournament. Get out early and healthy and gear up for the big dance. Rarely does your seed change unless you win it. If I was Barnes I would put little importance on it.

She may of been 16 in that photo but I was probably 9 or 10 lol

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

Don't give me my full order and see what happens. Nobody wants to see me twerking, I can promise you that.

Happy to see you're on the mend!

Uhh good news, well probably the best news is my friend that's been battling COVID (still in hospital unfortunately) is at least off the extreme treatment they had him on. So now they're waking him up more often and he's got enough spirit he tried to yank out his feeding tube recently. He hates hospitals so I'm sure he's completely over being there. But seems like at this point he's in recovery mode now and will hopefully be able to come off all the machine assistance soon.

I didn't think we'd beat Kentucky, LSU, or even Arizona. Really just comes down to how well we're playing. If we're hitting 45%+ and holding them to less than 40% we'll be able to pull it off.

When this team is shooting well, they can beat anybody.

Yep, we've only lost 1 game where we shot over 39% from FG and over 28% from 3 (At Kentucky).

This Auburn teams is also a bit different than year's past, they don't rely on the 3 ball much. We really gotta make them beat us in the half court and not foul while doing it.
