Tubes: What It's Like Having A Heart Attack

  • In January 2018, Tubes ( / @golflifecrew ) had a major heart attack and nearly died. I thought it would be interesting to interview him about it, partly because it's an amazing story, and partly to warn others who might experience similar symptoms, so they can get help quickly.
    Tubes has made a full recovery, and recently got the all clear from the hospital. Hooray!

      I was there 6 years ago mate (but without the penis thing). Had the old tube up the arm and a stent fitted (same thing, blockage to one of the 3 major arteries). Hope to turn 50 later this year. All the best with your recovery mate and use your time well, don't waste it with bullshit and bullshitters.

      Absolutely, some locations in the world if this happens you are pritty screwed. My uncle was on holiday in Spain and had a heart attack in the shower and got air lifted to hospital. They told him if he wasn't as fit as he was not including his hart valve that failed he would of died right there. Lucky for him he dont drink alcohol or ever smoked and exercises a lot. He was very lucky they told him because people normally die from a valve failing. It has effected him alot and aged him, his hair also went gray shortly afterwards it really took the wind out his sails so to speak.

    Thanks so much for posting this. I'm a GP and sadly heart attacks can be very difficult to pick up as they are easily interpreted as indigestion or other conditions so hopefully this helps to promote some awareness for people to suspect cardiac causes more often. Got to be honest, haven't ever actually heard anyone directly mention the shrunken penis before although it makes sense as the peripheral blood supply must have been shutting down

    I had a major heart attack in Nov 2017 and Tubes story is very similar to mine. Luckily I was in the gym when having mine because all the staff there were trained to deal with such a medical emergency and were great while the ambulance arrived. Rushed straight into surgery same as you were and had the exact same massive relief as you described when the artery was opened.
    One slight hiccup with mine was one of the medical team thought I had passed out in surgery and defibrillated me while I was still conscious, that wakes you up I can tell you. I never checked my penis but i'm sure it was fine lol.
    Anyway Tubes hope you are making a full recovery and good luck in the future.

    As a medic and a doctor who's actually worked in cardiology as a junior doctor and now training to be GP, this is fascinating to hear. Really enjoyed it's not often we hear the patients story and how they actually felt while it was going on. We know the textbook symptoms and clinical signs etc but rarely do we appreciate what it actually feels like to live through it. Loss of feeling in arms and legs is not typically associated with cardiac ischemia but it's what you reported and so it's very important to know.
    Even the silly stuff like penis shrinking is actually incredibly important to share, it's real world shit not something we ever read about in our medical books or guidelines
    Your experience is immensely important to our clinical knowledge and how we can use it to help and advise others and maybe pick out or suspect heart attacks that might otherwise get missed
    Thank you for contributing to our medical knowledge!!

    Then my arms went all gammy and I couldn't straighten them.
    I managed to call the ambulance and for the next two weeks I was in hospital.
    10 years later I had several heart attacks and I was dead for ten minutes.
    Lost my job, nearly lost my flat, I wasn't given any type of benefits.

    Tuuuuuubes! Great video! I’m a paramedic and hear this regularly. There can be symptoms in the lead up to the event several days beforehand, and it’s good that you have talked about this. ie feeling short of breath or chest tightness on exertion say climbing the stairs or noticing that you’re unable to do your regular day to day things without symptoms. People should speak to their GP and get an ecg, echocardiogram and maybe an angioplasty where the cardiologist checks the coronary arteries for narrowing and if needed put stents in there and then. It’s good to see you on Soccer AM looking so well and still having a great time playing football ⚽️

      Hey mate, I know it's been two years since you commented, but figure I'd ask you. What are the warning signs that lead up to a heart attack? Honestly I'm petrified about my heart. I get chest pains quite frequently, but most of the time it seems to be coming from my shoulder blade and comes through the front, other times it's like a pain that comes from my left pec near the armpit. I did have a CT angio done about 6 years ago and the doctor said there was no evidence of plaque buildup. I am also a chronic worrier about things, so that can't help. I'm due to go to a cardiologist in the coming weeks to try figure out what's going on. But until then, I'm a bag of worries.

    My dad had a heart attack last year. He is the fittest person I know, running marathons and so on, but after his spin class, he suddenly couldn't feel his arm, a sort of spinning in his fingers. My mom went into their room, and at the exact moment that my mom came in the door, he got a heart attack. My mom is a doctor, so she held my dad alive until the ambulance came. The doctors said, that it was because he smoked when he was younger. He survived luckily, but don't smoke! Thought I'd share. He is up and running again.
    GREAT VIDEO BTW!

    So glad tubes is putting his story out there. My dad had a heart attack in March 2018 and had to have an operation awake to have a stent put in! He was the exact same had been smoking / drinking / overweight etc. Then he Lost 3 stone, stopped smoking and stopped drinking etc. and THEN had a heart attack! Fortunately due to the NHS has made a miraculous recovery but not everyone is that lucky. All the signs tubes pointed out are very realistic and very accurate and it’s so important that you trust your instinct and act fast! Thank you for putting this out there and raising more awareness for the symptoms of a heart attack ❤️

Proves how badly a clot can make you feel and at the time you don’t even realise!

    Such a fantastic and precise explanation. Thank you both. I'm 48 and last Sunday I had my second heart attack, I had my first one due to a clot when I was 30. This time I had warning, constant what I now know to be angina attacks. These I foolishly ignored, hence heart attack part 2 this time it's personal!.. I echo Tubes comment completely. Don't be an utter bell#@d like me, get yourself checked out at the first sign of trouble. The Nhs, in my case it was Wirral and Liverpool were beyond brilliant. From consultants down to the domestics, unbelievable devotion, care and hard work. In these times and this country they are the one thing that makes us great.

    Hello tubes glad you pulled through mate.
    My sister had a heart attack 2 years ago. It was early in the morning and she was with friends, they didn’t know CPR and called an ambulance. The ambulance didn’t get to Lisa for 40 minutes. Lisa wasn’t breathing when the ambulance arrived so they gave her 8 shocks. The 8th one got a faint heart beat. The Drs said she was very lucky but now it was a waiting game to see how Lisa would or if she would pull through. Lisa was then in a coma in intensive care for 2 weeks. After 6 months Lisa was transferred to a specialist brain injury hospital. By this time we was told her heart attack and lack of oxygen meant she had suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury so again we was told to wait and see how Lisa improves day by day. The Drs said it takes 2 years for the brain to heal so Lisa could improve.
    Well anyway 2 years later Lisa is up and walking and talking like you wouldn’t believe. Sadly Lisa has a very short memory and can’t remember the past 48 years of her life. I still hope Lisa will improve. I and my partner see very slight improvements little by little. Lisa has now lived with us for just over a year. I couldn’t bear the thought of her staying in a care home for the rest of her life.
