00:01:18 - 00:01:34 | Speaker 7:

about uh your health kevin's been worried about your health i was actually going to say to you this morning you look like you've lost weight kev i don't know i don't know why i think i want That's probably stress. That's probably what it is. Honestly, I was looking at you this morning. You look good. What's going on? Why are you worried?

00:01:34 - 00:02:40 | Speaker 8:

Man, well, I mean, first off, like growing up, I was one of those young adults turning into a young man that just felt like water would cure anything. So anytime I got sick, I'm like, let me just drink a bunch of water. Don't take Tylenol. Don't take Advil. Don't take any medicine. And I really only go to the doctor when I have like a throat issue, like tonsillitis or strep throat. Anything beyond, I couldn't tell you the last time I had a physical, couldn't tell you anything about that. And recently, I've had some family members and some friends go through some pretty traumatic health experiences. One of my friends' moms got cancer recently. One of my family members got cancer recently. Earlier this week, I got a text message that said one of my friends, who's 27 years old, had a stroke. And he's been in the hospital for like four or five days. And they're just now getting like the swelling and the fluid off of his brain. And it's really got me thinking, like, I don't need to wait. And we just talked about the dude from Dawson's Creek, just got died. So in my mind, it's like, all of these are like, are there signs? Am I just, is that the way that I'm interpreting this?

00:02:40 - 00:03:04 | Speaker 6:

Or are we finally getting to that age where just like, I don't know how to phrase this without it being bad, because you just said this, and last week a friend of mine had a stroke. He's in his early 30s and had a break. That is not normal, but unfortunately, it's becoming more and more common. Yeah. Like, is it becoming more common, or are we just hitting that age where, like, the young threshold of, like, big health fears are happening?

00:03:05 - 00:03:39 | Speaker 7:

No. No. And honestly, I think it's been since COVID that we've been seeing a lot more of this. So I don't know if COVID played a huge factor in this. But I, Kev, I think 20s, how old is this? He's 27. 27 years old. And honestly, this is something that I've learned since I had my heart aneurysm. I can't believe how many people have the heart having a heart aneurysm that don't have any clue that they've had it since they were teenagers or born. So there's a lot of times you don't know health, but this is the thing we don't think about going to the doctor until when usually we're like forties, you know what I mean? Like that's usually the time when you start thinking about it or later.

00:03:40 - 00:03:40 | Speaker 8:

Yeah.

00:03:40 - 00:03:57 | Speaker 5:

By the way, for our insurance, Kev, I don't know if you know this, you, you should go get a physical every year because you get a really big discount on our insurance when you input that into our stuff. Yeah, and not just for financial purposes, but for peace of mind that, you know, you're getting all that stuff checked.

00:03:57 - 00:04:05 | Speaker 7:

So your friend is recovering from the stroke right now? Do they have any damage at all?

00:04:05 - 00:04:26 | Speaker 8:

Not that they know of. He's still in the hospital right now. We're getting text messages from his girlfriend because obviously she's, you know, our main point of contact that's knowledgeable about what's going on. He's been in there for a little under a week. He's swollen almost all over his body, but the swelling in his face has come down. So they're happy about that.

00:04:27 - 00:05:00 | Speaker 7:

Can I tell you a couple of things? And this is something that the docs at Michigan Medicine taught me. One, people don't take their blood pressure enough. You need to take your blood pressure. A lot of times people don't do it unless they're sitting there at CVS and they see the free blood pressure thing. So people don't have any clue. You should take your blood pressure. The other thing, too, if you take your socks off and your socks leave an indentation in your legs, you got you're retaining water that's not good and you should honestly go talk to a doc about stuff like that there's little things that people don't understand and a lot of times you

00:05:00 - 00:05:49 | Speaker 5:

know like we don't understand something until we see a kid that's playing on a field and the kid has a heart issue and it's like there's so many different signs that are out there my old doc uh cardiologist dr steve alminy he put so much effort into getting the schools all the schools not just you know the the rich people schools in the suburbs and stuff like that but all schools across the entire state to start doing heart healthy checks for these kids and it's a great idea and it's something that needs to continue but you need to look at this as an eye-opening situation for you i am and not be eating over at savvy slider every day shout out to savvy slider i'm telling you i know yes by the way we should have done this topic yesterday because this guy and and uh zach tore it up at savvy yesterday enjoyed ourselves what's up lisa

00:05:50 - 00:05:52 | Speaker 3:

Good morning, everyone. Good morning.

00:05:52 - 00:05:52 | Speaker 5:

What's going on?

00:05:53 - 00:05:58 | Speaker 3:

Kev, you've reached the age where you're not invincible anymore.

00:05:59 - 00:06:02 | Speaker 5:

And Kev's young. He's only 30. This is craziness, right?

00:06:02 - 00:06:18 | Speaker 3:

No. You just talked about football players. They go and get a physical every year. Yeah. We continue that until we're no longer here. You catch things way, way sooner than when it becomes an emergency.

00:06:19 - 00:06:41 | Speaker 1:

Even doctors that you don't think about, like I am really big on going to the dermatologist every year to get your whole body checked. It takes, this is no exaggeration, less than five minutes for them to do that. I've had skin cancer removed twice because it was found that way. And for women, I know a lot of women are so scared to get a mammogram. It's not that bad.

00:06:41 - 00:06:42 | Speaker 5:

What age are you supposed to get a mammogram?

00:06:42 - 00:07:05 | Speaker 1:

So Dr. Werner started sending me at 38. I kind of protested and didn't go until I was 39 and I'll be damned when I did I found out that I had dense breast tissue had to go back and then they I had that lymphoma scare that lasted a whole year of testing and biopsies and stuff so please please go I mean it's just it is a matter of life and death

00:07:05 - 00:07:24 | Speaker 5:

I don't understand why we don't check breast cancer like even earlier than that why is that just not a normal and then also I don't understand why we don't check you know colonoscopies and stuff at an earlier age i know it's i know why because the insurance companies suck and they don't want to pay for it right brandy what's up hi i just wanted to tell

00:07:24 - 00:07:45 | Speaker 4:

kev that health anxiety is super real i go through it every time i find out something has happened to someone close to me i start feeling random pains in that part of my body my boyfriend um of nine years just died two months ago 36 years old so now i'm terrified that i'm just gonna go to sleep

00:07:45 - 00:07:53 | Speaker 5:

one night and not wake up can we ask what what what did he die from what happened well he did

00:07:53 - 00:07:59 | Speaker 4:

have pre-existing health conditions from when he was a baby um however he was a pretty heavy drinker

00:07:59 - 00:08:17 | Speaker 5:

and oh geez um well that's the other thing too is it didn't help anything you don't like you talked to docs alcohol and uh tobacco and honestly you know they're against marijuana you know they're like any of the stuff we put in our systems you know drinking drinking is so bad i can look at

00:08:17 - 00:08:41 | Speaker 4:

pictures of him from when we were first together to recently and you can just tell how much that age can so if you if you have a problem drinking try to get it under control but health anxiety super real i you know i can find out someone has kidney failure so i mean my kidneys start hurting and it's it's not it's not in your head i mean it is i get it but it's it's anxiety and i go

00:08:41 - 00:08:57 | Speaker 5:

better safe than sorry very much yeah thank you for the call appreciate it um what's up uh lori hi how are you or corinne i'm sorry corinne i don't want to say lori's one of the other callers So I'll grab you in a second. What's up, Corinne?

00:08:57 - 00:09:17 | Speaker 2:

Hi. Yeah, it's Corinne. I was just saying my 12-year-old son, because of his father's family history, he has to have screening for his heart and his cholesterol checked. And it is literally listed on his thing has to have his heart checked and kept an eye on.

00:09:18 - 00:09:19 | Speaker 5:

Yeah. Yeah.

00:09:19 - 00:09:19 | Speaker 2:

At 12.

00:09:19 - 00:09:39 | Speaker 5:

My kids will forever have to do that, too, because of the aneurysm that I have is a hereditary thing, too. And honestly, I'm happy. I hate to say this. I'm happy that that's the case, because I'd rather have them check this than have it be the silent killer. And I think, you know, anytime you have any kind of illness in your family.

00:09:40 - 00:09:59 | Speaker 2:

Yeah, he freaked out because of the needle. So that was not fun. But I rather, like you said, I rather know than not know. And something happened to him when he's even just a little bit older because, like, his grandfather, his great uncle all have had severe heart attacks.

00:10:00 - 00:10:05 | Speaker 5:

Yeah. By the way, text or just text. New topic, please. You're making me scared.

00:10:05 - 00:10:07 | Speaker 2:

This should be important.

00:10:07 - 00:10:08 | Speaker 5:

Yeah. Manuel?

00:10:09 - 00:10:10 | Speaker 2:

Hey, how's it going?

00:10:10 - 00:10:11 | Speaker 5:

Good. What's up?

00:10:12 - 00:10:26 | Speaker 2:

So, yeah, just supporting all these claims, right? So I'm 34 years old. I would say relatively good health. I had a heart attack last year, actually. 34 years old, ended up having to get quadruple bypass surgery.

00:10:26 - 00:10:29 | Speaker 5:

You're 34 and had a quadruple bypass. That's unreal.

00:10:30 - 00:10:35 | Speaker 2:

Yeah, no, seriously. When I was going to cardiac rehab, I think I got all the high scores.

00:10:36 - 00:10:37 | Speaker 4:

Right, against the old people.

00:10:39 - 00:11:00 | Speaker 2:

Yeah, exactly. But, yeah, my wife and I went on vacation. I've had a long family history of this, but it's one of those. I couldn't tell you the last time I went to see a doctor before this. And it was one of those things. So it's like 100% support, get checked. Even if you think, you know, you're becoming a hypercontract, getting checked, no, get checked. It's definitely worth it.

00:11:00 - 00:11:18 | Speaker 5:

Thanks for that. Well, I don't know, you know, I think bringing up a topic like this is a great thing because it just brings awareness to it. Now it's just a follow-through. Yeah, for sure. And for anybody out there who feels the same way, let's get checked out. And our prayers for your friend. Thank you. That's horrible to hear that.
