WTH are the idiots up to now?

LONGTIME SM's picture

SD has been texting H telling him all about her adult 36 year old brother's (SS 36) recent emergency room visits.

Seems SS 36 has had to go to the emergency room 3 times in the past few weeks for some type of allergic reaction. Of course SD 35 has to throw in there that SS 36 has panic attacks that supposedly make these events worse.

IDK why these idiots keep mentioning SS 36's supposed panic attack issues that they have made sure to tell me about a couple of years ago and now keep trying to mention to H.

Is there any benefit to SS 36 by his trying to prove or make a record that he has panic attacks - if this is even being recorded by the medical drs.? It seems unlikely that they would bother if he truly has an allergy issue as this is what they are treating him for. Supposedly SS 36's symptoms are that his hands and feet become numb and tingling and then he gets hives. It does not seem very serious becuase it does not affect his breathing or functioning from what I was told. Since it is not life threatening or seemingly very serious it seems pathetic to me that an adult man has to have his lil sis tell his daddyyyyy that he doesn't feeeel goood. Snicker......... Biggrin

It does not sound too serious to me but then again I may be unsympathetic because some in my extended family have far worse allergy symptoms that are actually life threatening - which it does not appear SS 36's are - and they continue on with everyday life without running to mommy or daddy for sympathy.

It would not suprise me at all if this is another made up and exagerated issue filtered to H for attention just like SS 36's made up love child that he told everyone about about but refused to tell H about! (see prior blog) Probably a symapthy ploy to get H back up on that hamster wheel!

Any ideas about what they are up to by texting H about this latest bit of news?

I don't really know what your SD expects your H to do about his adult (indeed, well into his 30's) son's panic attacks. Tingling hands and feet are a symptom of a panic or anxiety attack, by the way - I used to get them. Funnily enough I did not feel inclined to involve my elderly parents in this minor medical matter, and neither should your SS.
I hope your H responds appropriately to this situation - ie, tells his son he is sorry to hear about his symptoms, and hopes they go away soon, or that he can get some treatment - end of story.

Wow...I ws in the hospital w/no family around and made sure DH did NOT tell my parents so they would not worry...he was only to tell them if I had life threatening complications, which I had a big chance of having...I told my mom AFTER the fact and only because she came down to visit and could SEE my huge scar...
