Let me preface this with I know that I am not that bright...
Oh, and I have a call into the Doctor at my Wife's insistance....
I was unable to cut my lawn for the last two weeks, and after a soaking three day rain, it was DISGUSTING.
Saturday, it was a measily 95 degrees and I started to mow what I could.
Between the heat, humidity, my asthma, and the fact that I am allegic to pollen, and the pollen count is VERY high, I didn't make it too long...
I got up yesterday in a foul mood (poss symptom?) and light headed. I started to mow at 7:30 AM. I drank water while mowing. I took a 20 minute break, a cold shower and put on fresh clothes around 9:30 and went back out for a bit over an hour.
I stopped around 11:00. It was in the high 80's to low 90's and VERY humid yet again.
I know that I should have stopped about 20 minutes before I did, but wanted to finish one last section of lawn.....
I came in, gasping for air and sweating like a pig. I was soaked. I took a cold shower for about 20 minutes and got out....I was still hot.
I sat, had more water, then switched to iced tea because I wanted the caffeine and I was EXAUSTED.
I got back into the shower for 1/2 hour. Got out and I was still hot. Mind you, my house has central air. I ended up eating a light lunch and sleeping most of the rest of the day. I had a buddy over for dinner, and I really didn't eat. I took yet another shower and went to bed at 8:00 for the night.
I woke up this morning sweating and still lightheaded. I took shower, drove into work. Walked to my office and I was soaked again.
I went home and took another shower. I am now sitting in my ice cold basement, with almost nothing on (sorry for the visual) and sweating my balls off.
I'm still a tad lightheaded, exhausted, and had to take B12 to try to get some juice. I'm beat.
Does this sound like heatstroke or something else?
I'm not having trouble breathing, nor am I lightheaded enough to think I'm going to passout....I feel sort of like I shotgunned a glass of wine.....
