Summary

Nothing happens by accident. There is always a reason for it. That is, do not accept things what happened to you for granted. Instead, analyze and find reasons for it- and save yourself. To illustrate that nothing happens by an accident this story gave several examples of this author's health problems. How she analyzed her sudden health problems and saved herself. One night, I woke up in the middle of the night in a fright-something terrible was happening to me. My heart was bursting with pain. "Am I having a heart attack?" I thought. The nausea, sweat, and dizziness were overwhelming. I reached for the phone to call 911. I was fainting. "How will an ambulance reach me? By breaking down the doors?" the next thoughts zipped across my mind, as I was living in a big apartment complex. I went into survival mode.... To make a story short, my blood pressure, only at night suddenly spikes up to 240-250/110-90 mm Hg. Many times, I was in hospitals, no one knows why my blood pressure suddenly skyrocketed. I prepared for my cremations. Than, I started using a common sense and started analyzing why my blood pressure shut up at night to a life-threatening level. And, went through inventory of my other illnesses. Medicine is an art, it is not an engineering, which has formulas. Just go to 5 different physicians and get 5 different diagnosis. I learned a lot how to analyze an event, in this case my sudden illness. These discoveries I share in this story.
