Your computer could be killing you

Several things are not mentioned in the article.
1. Do you have a family history of blood clots?
2. Overweight? Smoke? Never exercise?
3. Poor eating habits? High cholesterol?

If you are generally a healthy human being, it is not a big risk IMHO.......

 

Thanks for the advice. If sitting or lying down may kill me I am going to stop doing both.

 

gets some exercise you lazy %&^%$# to prvent this condition and enjoy the many other health benefits. any other solution is just BS! problem solved. eom!

 

hang yourself by your ears from the ceiling should help

 

Hey, here's an idea- exercise!

 

Iv'e been doing this since I was kid. Has not helped at all.
But I do have ears like a jack rabbit.

 

Oh no, Computer, don't look at me that way. I think it has a gun and it wants to kill me....don't shoot.....I will be good.....I won't make you work 16 hours a day......I promise, really...:eek: :eek:

 

yeah it's worth keeping tabs on, pulmonary embolism, lookup in google, read the stuff at http://www.emedicine.com

apparently it's a big killer and nobody talks about it much..

there's some kind of test, V/Q scan, which helps tests for it, at least in lungs -- anyone had that done? helpful?

one thing I had done last year, which is great, is going to one of those commercial MRI type scanning places, had a virtual colonography and a complete heart checkup, to check for calcium score and for a echocardiogram.. it was very helpful .. so far so good... at 39, I want to start keeping tabs on the body, make sure all's well, check it every couple three years...




(now I've gotta get back on that treadmill) ..

I think we'd better trade in our bed.
