It's good to be realistic
  • I used to use one that measures your sleep cycle somehow, and wakes you up when you're in you're most wakeful state within a certain amount of time before your actual alarm is set. So if you set your alarm at 6, but the app sees that you're starting to be in a less restful state at 5:45, it'll make you up at 5:45

    It's not a free app, unfortunately.

  • i didn't tell anyone when i got my benefits from the VA. i just collect my disability grant from them every month and keep my mouth shut about it. honestly, the military fucked us up, the least they can do is pay us out for the various types of fucked up we are.

    it's pretty easy to apply to the va, just an online form, some supporting documentation, an appointment with their doctor (mine was over the phone), and about a 9 month wait is all it took for me.

  • When should I be worried about cardiac health?

    For the past few days I've been having pain in my chest and neck. It feels tight and like a bunch of pressure on my chest. I was worried enough to go to the ER for it yesterday. My resting HR was 104 and blood pressure was 130/95 when i got into the hospital. It lowered while waiting for the doctor to see me. They did an ECG and a blood test.

    Doc says my ECG looked normal, but they had to redo my blood test because my troponin levels were at "7". They said that I didn't have a heart attack, but when I'm researching troponin levels, anything above a 4 is indicative of damage to the heart.

    I also told the doc that i have depression and anxiety. he chalked it up as anxiety attacks.

    At this point, does it sound like I should go see a cardiologist?
