"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
I have a question to throw out there for my father in law..He is in texas and a retired teacher and coach..well for his retirement he started printing shirts, he's been doing it for 15 years, he's 70 now..manually printing...a couple months ago he was having chest pains...went to hospital...thought he may have had a heartattack...well it wasn't..his cardiologist said he has the heart of a 55 year old...My father in law goes to gym everyday...thought is was gall bladder...nope...all his doctors gave him a clean bill of health...He can't sleep..in the middle of the night he has to stand up for 3-4 hours because the pain..sp he took muscle relaxers and now able to sleep..He is thinking that printing manually (he prints 30-40 hours per week at age 70) is messing up the muscles in his back causing the pain...Does anyone know if this has happened to them or happened to someone they knew?Thanks
learn how to push it not pull it. the only thing that hurts me is my feet after pushing for a 8 hours.
i forget the name but i watched a documentary on Netflix about diet and animal products - in countries that don't eat meat (at least as much as Americans) the instances of cancer, diabetes and heart disease went down dramatically.one study was i think Norway - heart disease was climbing before the Nazi occupation. the Nazis took the livestock for themselves and the locals had to eat a plant based diet. the heart disease went down dramatically. after the war when they changed their diet back and the heart disease went back up.i realize that you stated that your father in law saw a cardiologist, but it wouldn't hurt to try a plant based diet.other things to try would be a chiropractor - could be that the vertebrae are out of alignment.

While toe movie is more of a propaganda film with very little opposing view, it did make me evaluate what I eat and I reduced the animal product intake as a consequence.pierre
