did you know your lung is attached to your chest cavity?
well i found out the other day when I went to the ER. I thought I was having a heart attack. the doc ran some blood tests, did an EKG test. and some test for any clogged arteries. when all those tests came back normal, they did a CT scan. and found that i had partially torn my lung from my chest cavity . Incase you were wondering this hurts ALOT but i did get good drugs!!
this happened while i was paintballing. i told my grandmother about my mishap and she informed me of the dangers of running around in the woods shooting balls filled with paint at other people. she also told me that if i wanted to shoot people i should have joined the military to which i replied "yeah but when you get hit in the military it tends to hurt alittle more".

Your Gradmother is a very wise lady *looks over should* They can be senile too lol.....


Hope you recover from this quickly, never heard of this happening before or even how this would happen is a mystery... Do you have Asthma??

[RandyA]

nope no asthma. the doc admitted he had no idea how this happened. the only thing i can think of is i fell on the snow paintballing and it happened then? he said that he has seen it in tall skinny men. im kinda tall at 6ft2in but i weigh 215lbs so im not skinny. this is the weirdest thing that has happened to me. the doc gave me a 100% recovery time of 3-4 weeks which sucks.
