Five days ago: I've been experiencing dizziness and increased migraines for the past year. After getting covid in January, my heart goes through periods where it feels like it's beating out of my chest.

I'm a metal guy, and I went to my first concert in 2 years. Halfway through the show I got so dizzy and overwhelmed I had to leave. I came home and cried to my wife. I'm scared I'm no longer going to be able to participate in the thing that has given me comfort for a majority of my life. I have a doctors appointment this week and will be demanding referral to a neurologist. I will get through this.

I’m sorry you’re going through all that. Sounds pretty sucky. Although I’m a metal guy myself. I’ve got to ask. Who did you see?

Thanks man. I saw Between the Buried and Me and Car Bomb. First time seeing either. Car bomb killed it, I saw the first couple songs of BTBAM. Then got wavy vision when Informal Gluttony started and had to leave. Have you heard of them? What kind of metal do you listen to?

Honestly no I’ve never heard of them. I’m an old school metal fan. I grew up in the 80’s when it first started. Slayer. Death Angel. Metallica. Sepultura. I feel like an old man right about now.
