i knew this because i have had panic attacks and hyperventilating removes too much CO2 from your body, makes your blood basic, and that makes your whole body numb starting from extremities, which makes hyperventilating and the sense of panic/doom even worse. Would not recommend 0/10. But seriously, learning that helped me a lot. I now know why my body gets numb in a panic attack and not knowing was very frightening which made it worse.

I wish schools taught courses this way. You may get an answer wrong, but you still get the knowledge being offered. These quizzes tell you WHY the right answer is right. Not just a big red X. Chubbyemu is actually a GOAT🏆

Winning a 1/3 be like: "I'm something of a doctor myself, you know."

i figured it would be the same principle as the ocean becoming more acidic

I used to do free diving, I could hold my breath for four minutes, but not more than 10 times an hour.

Just learned these core principles in EMT classes. Now I can’t stop noticing my chemoreceptors telling my medulla that the CSF is acidic. Every time it does it makes me breathe faster. Really annoying

On the contrary. I recently discovered that breathing too much too fast causes alkalosis which is that feeling of numbness, tingling, and dizziness when you hyperventilate. Your body uses carbonic acid to regulate blood pH and too much breathing lowers carbonic acid in the blood making your blood basic

Carbon dioxide -> carbonic acid -> dissociate into bicarbonate and hydrogen ions

Chubbyemu, I was listening to a Strange Dark and Mysterious story from Mr Ballen the other day. It was a mystery about men falling sick on the job and on man, after eating a bowl of cereal falling REALLY progressively ill, and the illness never let up. His incessant and progress symptoms reminded me of one of your stories of a person who also became aggressively progressively ill. Without giving away spoilers, to either story, YOUR story helped drive my "laymen differential diagnosis"...and by the time the plot was revealed in Mr Ballen's story, "I was RIGHT!!!"😯😯😯 Just wanted to let you know, you not only help maintain the wonderment of health care for me, you EDUCATE as well and reflexively that knowledge is applied AND SHARED in real lif

I am pretty sure this also has to do if someone has their limb/s crushed by rubble. Because of the oxigen transfer being cut with the blood flow, the stagnant blood can get so acidic that when removing the rubble, is a chance that the sudden influx will cause a heart attack. That's why paramedics are instructed to neutralize the acid with a basic solution before removing rubble

I knew this because my son didn't get enough oxygen at birth and had acidosis. He's a healthy tot now!
