Wednesday, March 5, 2008

After doing that exercise, I got a bit light headed and breathing didn’t resume back to a normal level. About 10 minutes later, I started Kata 6 and about mid-way, started getting light headed again. I stopped.

20 hours later I was in ICU for four days with massive blood clots in both lungs and one big one in the pulmonary artery.
