Question

Prolonged bed rest. Now feel weird to stand-walk. Exhausted. No interest in things. How can I get back to normal life?

Answer 1

Complex answer: There are many things that can cause someone to feel tired all the time-too much to go through in a forum like this. If you're getting plenty of sleep, exercising, eating well and still feeling this way, it's best to see your doctor and have them do a thorough history and physical.

Answer 2

Talk: Tell him how you feel, and focus on yourself and your feelings or he may become defensive or just shut down. You may feel rejected or unwanted, or even scared. Communicaton is important to any relationship. Ask him if everything is ok. Keep an open line of communication during good and bad times.

Answer 3

Wow: Your bf's bipolar disorder needs to be managed by his doctors. You may wish to ask your bf if you could speak with his treating physician/psychologist to get ideas and tactics to help deal with his problem at your level of interaction. Visit the balanced mind foundation website to get pointers on bipolar disorder.

Answer 4

Distance walking: There are different tests to measure endurance: a six minute walk test is the best distance walked in meters per unit time. This is usually done in a straight line/circular tracks may be used. An incremental shuttle walk involves walking between two cones. You walk as long as you can until breathlessness. The number of shuttles (laps between the cones) is noted; a shuttle = 10 meters.

Answer 5

SWT: This test evaluates functional exercise capacity by measuring how long a patient can maintain a constant pace walking around a 10-meter shuttle (between two cones). The swt has stages. The beginning and end of each stage are indicated by an auditory signal (beep). In each stage, the speed is gradually increased. Test ends when one doesn't reach the next cone before the beep.

Answer 6

Yes: Yes, this is normal and safe.

Answer 7

Pretty safe: As long as a person is smart and aware of what is going on all around him while he is walking and talking, the talking is not very dangerous. There is a small risk of tripping, falling, and breaking a bone. Other risks include walking into a lamp post, getting run over by a car, etc... A few people are so unaware of their surroundings that they shouldn't be doing anything distracting when walking.

Answer 8

Walk and talk.: Conversing with someone while walking is fine for two reasons. (1) keeps you engaged in something while walking to combat boredom and keep you going longer. (2) it's a good way to gauge the proper intensity of your walking - when walking you should feel a bit winded but not so winded that you're unable to converse in sentences.

Answer 9

Hyperventilate: There are several possibilities. If you mean by hyperventilating you are short of breath with effort of walking fast then it indicates that you may not be getting enough oxygen to your heart. This could be a pulmonary problem or a cardiac problem. You must call your doctor to report this and be examined to find the cause and then properly treated. Do not postpone== this could be serious.

Answer 10

Processing oxygen.: Your body is trying to process oxygen, as you're exercising. As your muscles repetitively contract, they require a smooth flow of oxygenated blood, to keep them working. As you get into better shape, the mechanism for processing oxygen becomes more efficient. When that happens, you may notice that you don't hyperventilate as much.

Answer 11

Depends: Yes, it is possible. It depends on many things like age, weight, physical condition, how you land, how far (how many flights or steps). It also depends on the size of the channel for your spinal cord and nerves (varies from person to person, and can be narrowed by degeneration, aging, arthritis). If you have a condition that affects balance, take extra precautions to reduce the risk of falls.

Answer 12

Yes: A neck fracture or dislocations/ubluxation jumped facets misaligning the neck can lead to spinal cord injury falls and mva are common ways to get this injury.
