Just found out soap is alkaline. If you run out of antacids and your acid reflux is really bad, can you eat soap to settle your tummy? This post inspired by eating chalk for acid reflux.

    My heart actually did stop in the hospital… after the 2nd heart attack. I was asleep and had no clue until the nurse came in the room.

    6AM, wake up, waiting on a stent, fiddling around on my phone. Nurse comes in.

    “Were you asleep about an hour ago?”

    “Yeah, why?”

    “Your heart stopped for 8 seconds.”

    “Ummm… thank you? I don’t know how to respond to that.”

        It’s been a struggle. I got the stent, still having trouble with my heart just stopping randomly. 4 seconds here, 5 seconds there, always when I’m asleep. Docs say it’s not concerning unless it happens when I’m awake, so I have an implanted heart monitor that calls out on my phone if there’s a problem.

        There were problems with my meds that made me pass out from low blood pressure. Scared the hell out of the docs one day when I hit 58/47 in their office.

        “Honest, I assure you I HAVE blood pressure, I’m sitting here talking to you, right?”

        “Yeah, we don’t know how you’re doing that!”
