I appreciate your concern but I was never afraid of a heart attack when I went to the ground and could not move. I had no pain and no trouble breathing but I felt as if I was knocked down and had the hell kicked out of me and maybe beaten with a rubber hose also. The fact that all I could do was crawl came from that. My muscles would not allow me to stand up. My back and other areas would not allow me to set down and then stand up again. This took a few days to get over.

Once the above becomes a good description of heart attack or stroke I might take this more seriously. I'm not taking a physical situation where you feel you were beaten half to death as a stroke or heart attack.

Not going. Apparently people cannot read my post correctly or I'm not able to post what happened. What did happen? I fell down and could not get up, feeling as if I had been kicked and beaten repeatedly. This is not how heart attacks go. It took me days to recover. None of this had to do with breathing or shortness of breath but now everyone wants to scare me up.

@DenoPenno Did we not read your post correctly, or do you indeed need to see a doctor?
People don’t fall down and lose all the strength in their limbs for no reason?!
And I have yet to mention a heart attack.
Although a stroke would cause you to fall down and be weak for days.

I’ve known people that have had strokes. One of them did just as you did and crawled in his house. A friend found him on his floor a couple days later and called an ambulance. He was lucky to live through it, and likely wouldn’t have for not someone coming by.
You can chalk it up to nerves, or whatever you wish. Clearly you should see a doctor….

His symptoms are quite worrisome. He needs checked out…..

Currently I have no symptoms to be checked and I can now drive myself to a doctor. Why would I go to my doctor now? All of my muscles hurt for close to a week and I felt like I had been worked over with a rubber hose. There was no one point of p[ain and I did not fall and hit anything. Why should I get my doctor to lying? It was extremely hard to get in and out of a chair due to muscle pain. Whatever this was it is not the common heart attack senario. Let me change this feeling to something most people can understand. It was as if I was knocked down and then someone repeatedly kicked the hell out of me and would not stop.

As for a solar tube. Good choice. What I need for that grapefruit sized hole is a fake solar tube just to keep the water out. I would gladly pay a thousand just to do this and it is quick and simple. So far I cannot find anyone.

@DenoPenno Well if you're on the mend and feeling better, that's good. Stay home.
I am glad you're healing

It ended up being 2 holes and was fixed yesterday by a local repairman who is my neighbor's nephew. $175 took care of the metal roof part. I will fix the inside in time. Took my quitclaim deed to my insurance lady today so my check can come to me without having my ex wife listed too. At divorce time she signed off on all the property.

I absolutely agree with @spinleiesel, it was my first thought upon reading your description, especially the part about your limbs not working and the "heaviness", exactly what i experienced during my stroke from a chiropractor damaging my left vertebral artery at age 38.
This can and will happen again, unless you make changes, the sooner the better & seeing a doctor being the first thing to do!!!
You have been Very lucky, you could have been driving and taken out a family of 5!!!!!

That was my first impression too, that you suffered a stroke. I would definitely get checked out for that with a hospital..

Your reply is the most sensible to me. I might try that emergency button. It makes more sense than crawling into a doctor's office and listening to what might have happened to me. The pain that I am talking about that continued for days is a MUSCLE PAIN with no one certain area. It is also not a pressure pain. It was as if the muscles were sore and exhausted. Slowly they all felt better.

@DenoPenno I'm not a doctor, but that sounds like an issue with nerves. Whatever it turns out to be, take care of yourself. Those buttons work pretty well. I got my dad one before he passed, he accidentally activated it once and emergency services were there in a flash.
