Why I\'ve been away
EHM-1883 Matt:
Alright, here I go:
I was in hospital for awhile because I have had recently Premature Ventricular Contraction disorder which is caused by stress usually. However, I have had it for 5 days, and I was getting concerned, so I went to the hospital and they were checking my heart for whether it has a disease or something like that.
The good news is I am perfectly healthy, and it was caused by stress
The bad news is the reason it was so long is because I have a faulty heart genetically. My mother has two powerpacks (I think the proper word is pacemaker, but I prefer using that word; it sounds cool) that beat the heart when stressed instead of one, and I have now got that.
The good news is it's not dangerous, and it cannot kill me
The bad news is I will have this and tachychardia (another form of heart irregularity) more often when I get stressed, and it will be for longer, and it will feel stronger than the normal powerpacks because I've got two going at it!
So, that's basically it. It's nice to know I'm not going to die, and I'm not too bothered actually about having two powerpacks
EHM-1703 Philip:
Glad to hear you are OK and that things are looking up, just make sure you stay away from stress and don't forget to apply bleed air to your packs before attempting a restart!!!! ;)
EHM-1001 Robert:
Welcome back Matt. It is good to hear everything is fine again.
If you stay more in the blue sky, probably less stress will happen...
-...errr, Captain, the stewardesses gone crazy, because the multimedia system has crashed and the passengers cannot use their iPods, so they want to stop the plane and get off...also we have ran out coffee and Whisky.
- Anything good news ?
- We lost Engine 1 and 2 hydraulics, but the ATC cleared us for finish holding pattern, so we have a stright way until the runway!
- All right then, I am going back to calm down the passengers, the plane is yours !
EHM-0948 Bruno:
