Well…. It finally happened…. I worked a 14 hour shift …. Came home got ready for bed ( took sleep meds) all of a sudden there is fucking blood everywhere! It’s spewing/ spurting out of a vein in my leg like a fire hose! It won’t stop , when I move it sprays the walls etc ….. try holding pressure on it, won’t stop the bleeding ….. I wrap it in a bath towel and put electrical tape around my leg ( all I had) can’t drive to the emergency room because of taking the sleep meds. ….. go to sleep wake up in a bloodbath ….. blood everywhere!!!! I go to work they tell me to go to the ER right now! … so I went ( not much they can do but put clotting powder on it and wrap it ) I have to see a Vascular surgeon now ( remember I had all my varicose veins removed completely ten years ago)

That's when actually knowing people comes in handy.

Mike, hope you get it taken care of quickly and recover. I'm curious about a few things.
1. How old are you?
2. Are you diabetic or have you ever been pre-diabetic?
3. Have you ever used illicit drugs?
4. Misused/abused pain medications or stimulants?
5. I'm actually more concerned about what the condition of your foot could be indicating.
6. Are you saying that there was NO kind of trauma that cut/lacerated your leg and your arterial wall I'd so thin/brittle that you had a spontaneous hemorrhage?
7. Do you have high blood pressure?
I'm not passing judgement. I'm genuinely concerned and attempting to figure out how serious it is.

60 / no / yes pretty much tried all the “ club- party drugs” been clean for decades /no/ zero trauma …. Did not hit it or anything … was on my feet tho for a 14 hour shift at work/ yes i have slightly elevated blood pressure…. And to the other guy …. Yes having a girlfriend or friends I could calll at midnight to take me to the emergency room would be nice!

Wishing you the speediest recovery possible Mike.
thank you!!
-
Seriously, WTF?!
I have NEVER heard such a thing.
I would say you need medical assistance, pronto.
Best wishes.
LOOK INTO IT.
-
Are you in pain Mike.
-
Dude, you have venous disease with spontaneous rupture of varicose veins. You're likely going to need sclerotherapy to collapse the symptomatic veins, a phlebectomy or an ablation.
If you were in NYC, I'd get you in with a vascular surgeon.
The good thing is you'll be alright. The bad thing is all that blood will stain your carpet. No seriously, the biggest risk is possibly developing a clot in your limbs (DVT) that can become dislodged and travel towards your heart, lungs or brain. That said, ask your primary care doctor if an anticoagulant is right for you.

They ( the veins hurt yes/ especially when being on my feet like tonight for a 10 plus hour shift) I kept checking to make sure they weren’t bleeding!

Holy shit I didn’t know that was a thing!
At least you are here to tell the story. Best of luck mate! 🙏

Damn they are making you wait that long? Good luck bro.
if it was canada he would have to wait 3 months
-
Very sorry to hear it Mike.......wishing you the best and a speedy recovery.
Godspeed.
-
HOLY SHIT MIKE!
GO SEE A DOCTOR/EMERGENCY ASAP!
Call an Amber Lamps!
What the hell!
-
Should have gone to the ER Mike maybe???
Best of luck...
-
Yeah, fuck waiting that long. Go to the ER. Good luck and get better soon.
-
Brah go to ER asap.
You might get some irreversible damage if you wait 10 days. That foot looks bad.
-
All the best for a speedy resolution Mike!
-
My great uncle stalled going to er with circulation issues in his leg/foot when he noticed it flare up one day. He died later that day, don't put shit like this off!
-
That’s pretty scary Mike. Get to ER asap. Good luck bro.

Foot isn’t looking too good either man …. I don’t know WTF is going on???!!!
Looks like Chronic Venous Insufficiency, a condition in which blood has difficulty returning to your heart. The blood pools in your veins, straining their vessel walls, and it looks like one or more of your veins reached their limit.
Risk factors include heavy body weight (typically associated with obesity but even lean, muscular weight will multiply the pressure in your legs) and prolonged standing—which is likely why it happened at the end of a 14hr shift. All that fluid collects in your feet and legs, building pressure until the weak part of your vessels sprung a leak.
If you notice your feet beginning to feel numb/pins and needles/tingling/cold, seek medical care immediately. This could be a sign of impaired circulation to your feet and could lead to amputation if left untreated. Also, if you experience sudden chest pain, shortness of breath, spitting up blood, coughing fits, seek medical care immediately - these could be signs of a blood clot having lodged itself your lungs. The risk of either of these happening is small, but you should still be aware.
In the meantime, spend as much time as possible with your feet elevated to help the blood drain to your heart. Stay off your feet as much as possible. I dont know if it’s possible to take time off work but I dont think it’s a good idea to go back before seeing the vascular surgeon. If you do have to go back, try to keep it to shorter shifts .. 4-6 hours tops. Not always possible since we all have bills to pay but do the best you can.
-
Mike I’m no vascular surgeon- but I don’t think that’s supposed to happen man.
Seriously- I hope you get that figured out and fixed. That picture of your foot is pretty disturbing.
-
get yourself some piano wire
-
Why go to a doctor when you can get on the internet and figure things out?
-
Trying to sleep it off, going to work next day does speak to an insane work ethic/sense of duty, or perhaps fear, fear of losing you job etc.
In any case, I wouldn't have gone anywhere, I would have called an ambulance even if they insisted I take myself to hospital, like they sometimes do, I would have made something up. I'm like, I paid taxes all my life, now you pay me back! Lol.
Hope yoy get the help you need Mike, and within reasonable time.
Often in healthcare "they" talk about the need of "demanding" help to actually get help. Some people like myself aren't good at that so often don't get help. And if rich maybe having a lawyer with you to the hospital would be a good idea, I'm not sure, but I think a lot of people die out of pure negligence and not giving a fuck, other priorities.
-
Bro...
-
Mike seriously get in the hospital or this might end up as an rip thread.
Bodybuilders have to take this shit seriously because it's most often a sign that the PED side effects are catching up.
-
Damn, Mike. I didn’t know that was even possible. I thought this was going to be a thread about nicking your vein while shaving or something, not spontaneously bleeding. Hoping for a positive outcome. PS love the whey protein containers on the floor next to the blood puddle. That’s the hardcore bodybuilding lifestyle that we like to see on Getbig

When I realized you were responding to someone else's post I stopped and cut it short. I would recommend you step away from the internet for a little while. Perhaps go out of doors and inhale some fresh air.

Good question. If I, like Wes and others here, had spent decades on this forum with tens of thousands of posts and hundreds of thousands of hours, I would deem your point valid. But I haven't, so I won't.

What do you suggest, Rob? What do I do if I see him in the gym today? He’s a very dedicated man
Pick him up and walk him into the hospital.

Offer him a foot rub to help his blood flow :-X
Mike if you're going to work and not the hospital because you want to carry on with your life and pass this off as nothing too serious then just stop. Go to the hospital ASAP
At the very least call the vascular surgeons office and ask if they can see you sooner. Make your situation sound worse than it is. Tell them it's bleeding on and off most evenings.
Also if possible don't go to work until all this is sorted. At the very least tell work you can't be on your feet day until it gets sorted. Don't try and be a hero.
Get well and please never post another picture of your feet again!
-
But what would ESFitness do?
-
Sometime ago you disclosed your stimulant and sleep aid regimen. I thought to myself, the stimulants are jeopardizing your sleep, stop everything and your body will level out.
In all seriousness, hope you get better and stay better. Let your body manage itself without the aids. We are not getting any younger and healthier.

Christ - hope that's sorted soon - type 2 looks possible, but what do I know!?
On a tangent, a few months back I went for to the toilet in the middle of the night, and as usual gave my balls a good scratch. When I stood up I noticed blood pooled underneath me - thought for a second I'd perforated my colon or something (a la Justin Compton). Then I noticed a stream spurting a good distance in front of me and realised what must have happened - fingernail nicked a vein... that took a while to stop too. And there was no question of calling for help LOL
TL/DR
1 Keep nails trimmed
2 Be gentle with balls

Give up the drug life style. Damn, so many of you guys are on sleeping pills, anti depressants, anxiety pills, tranquilizers and a host of bodybuilding drugs. Never mind the "fun" recreational drugs added to the mix. Every new ailment adds another pill to the regiment. Give it all up cold turkey. Suffer for a couple of weeks and come out on the other end feeling better.

Happens to the best of us.
One night I tried manscaping, hit a vein, left a crime scene in my bathroom. Called my sister later that night to compare battle scars (me nicking a rogue vein and bleeding a bit versus her having bloody periods for 4+ decades). That night I empathized on the struggles of womanhood.

Yes he did when he turned 40. When he was 45 he moved like an old man that couldn't walk around a block without keeling over. He was in horrific shape. Ray suffered the same. He got winded picking up a 45lb plate.

In the 80's all the girls had a nice triangle of hair down there. Then the shaved pussy era came in. I work in an office of young women and one thought no one was looking and she scratched her pussy putting her hand on the outside of her skirt. Knew right there she shaved and now it was growing back, lol. Then again? Now women are going back to having hair down there. I like both looks but I lean toward women having the triangle. Heard men saying it looks so much bigger shaved, lol.
-
This absolutely should not wait until the 18th to be seen by a medical professional.
Get yourself checked immediately, even if it requires an Emergency Room visit.
PM me if you want to discuss more or if you’d like help with this.

Yep - genuinely the most 'real' fear I've felt in the last 10 years - I say 'real' because I got that cold squirt in my gut - that's rare nowadays

Yeah, the pressure really surprised me - the only other time I've seen blood spurt like that was many years ago when a friend decided to ignore my advice to decant some Primobolan from the legit Schering Redi-jects it came in into a smaller slower pin. Those things must have been close to 2mm across! Like a cattle injection. When he withdrew there was a burst and then a strong arc of red all up the wall maybe a couple of feet away, and he went grey and slithered down the bench close to a faint.
-
Please take care of yourself, Mike.
-
Need to get that looked at asap mate work can wait. Hope you ok Mike
-
Thank you for the outpouring of support and love! ( just got off the phone with the vascular surgeons office ….. they can’t get me in before the 18th , but put me on a cancellation list ) I went to the ER (my work made me this was after the bleed out … when I went to sleep) not much they could except use some clotting powder and wrap it and tell me to go see a vascular surgeon……

Doubt there's anything more they could do besides suggest you keeping them wrapped up.
Here's my suggestion (the advice of an accountant, which will seem very obvious "duh advice"): Stay away from exercises like squatting for a bit (at least until you see the vascular surgeon). Squatting produces an increase in venous blood return to the heart and inversely an increase in peripheral vascular resistance (more on the arterial side). The squatting can make the already fragile veins have more spontaneous ruptures. If you already thought of this, please disregard.
In the meantime, are you on an Aspirin (antiplatelet med) or an anticoagulant of any sort?

In all seriousness, I hope you get better Mike. You seem like a good dude. If I was you, I would go straight to the ER. Get better!!

In all seriousness I pray for your health. I hope the docs can offer good medical advice and treatment. That leg doesn't look healthy and this if from the opinion of a guy that has no medical training. Hope the vascular surgeon can see you quickly. Sorry for your troubles.

When will you be back to training legs?

I really do hope this gets resolved and you get back to being healthy Mike. Take care

Thanks guys! Just keeping an eye on it until I go see the Vascular surgeon ( just got home from work now)

How did it happen? He didn’t brace for impact.

Mike, if the doctor tell you to get off all anabolics will you?
My guess, is no. Why be small right?

Seems like varicose veins can be a danger for power bottoms.

Mr Arvilla you probably already know this but try to consume more antioxidants throughout the day. Grape Seed Extract and Green Tea Extract are great for blood vessel health. Extra Vitamin C will help too.

Well…. It finally happened…. I worked a 14 hour shift …. Came home got ready for bed ( took sleep meds) all of a sudden there is fucking blood everywhere! It’s spewing/ spurting out of a vein in my leg like a fire hose! It won’t stop , when I move it sprays the walls etc ….. try holding pressure on it, won’t stop the bleeding ….. I wrap it in a bath towel and put electrical tape around my leg ( all I had) can’t drive to the emergency room because of taking the sleep meds. ….. go to sleep wake up in a bloodbath ….. blood everywhere!!!! I go to work they tell me to go to the ER right now! … so I went ( not much they can do but put clotting powder on it and wrap it ) I have to see a Vascular surgeon now ( remember I had all my varicose veins removed completely ten years ago)
Don't be spraying that shit all over those jugs of protein, you're going to need to sell those to pay for your hospital bills. And clean the floors already, hard to sell the house with stains like that.

He also needs to replace all meat with milk instead , his venous system crying out signs left and right writing is on the wall hey mike lets back off on the turbo shes running rich!

Did your dad have this issue is it hereditary or do you think your lifestyle caused it?
Mom had it ( varicose veins / poor leg circulation) Dad died when I was young … so no clue

Michael, please look after yourself. You have always come across as an absolute gentleman on this forum and I treat people accordingly. Just take it easy for a while. Consider really trying to learn breathing techniques. I’ve been able to treat my high bp with breathing and I think bp problems happen “in the moment” so being able to focus on nose breathing could be difference between a panic attack or a stroke or a burst blood vessel. I am younger though and a bit of a lunatic so don’t listen to me
Get an infrared light to help circulation and healing and work Up to saunas

Yes.

Yes, the combination of infrared sauna and hyperbaric oxygen therapy will accelerate recovery.
After seeing your photos it looks like you injected oil into your arms, shoulders and maybe your legs too.
If so, you could have consequences like Flex.

I don't think Mike has ever addressed this but I don't see any signs of filler oils in Mike. I doubt he has ever used them but perhaps he can clarify. I don't think Flex had varicose veins. Also Flex was having pain I don't think Mike reported any lower leg pain Flex also had kidney issues again I don't recall Mike mentioning any kind of kidney issue. I do wonder about his blood pressure though?

Still hanging in there! ………..
Mike serious advice.
If I were in your shoes till I saw the doc, I'd go on at least week-long water fast and I'd high dose vitamin C in the form of L-ascorbate not ascorbic acid (that's trash). High dose as in 10-30 grams yes, grams for a week. The dosages depends on your bowel tolerance. Meaning diarrhea. Then just back down.
This protocol meaning fasting and Vitamin C provides a host of immediate benefits.
Good luck.

Mike, listen to Wiggs. Get better soon, and please do address the root cause of the problem. People don't just start showering the walls with blood spraying out of their legs. That ain't normal or common.

Foot isn’t looking too good either man …. I don’t know WTF is going on???!!!
Don’t know about the black dots but the bruising look is to be expected.
Propably, and likely, some of those ruptured veins bleed inside to your skin and blood just gathers at your ankles and bottoms of your feet. Like with any other tear etc.
I would keep those legs elevated as much as possible, compression socks and icy water immersion if possible.

I don't know about that. A calorie is a calorie outside the body, but once you consume it it's a totally different story depending on a number of factors and variables.
Comparing Very Low-Carbohydrate vs DASH Diets for Overweight or Obese Adults With Hypertension and Prediabetes or Type 2 Diabetes: A Randomized Trial
May 2023
"We randomized 94 adults from southeast Michigan with this triple multimorbidity using a 2 × 2 diet-by-support factorial design, comparing a very low-carbohydrate (VLC) diet vs a Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet
For adults with hypertension, prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, and overweight or obesity, the VLC diet resulted in greater improvements in systolic blood pressure, glycemic control, and weight over a 4-month period compared with the DASH diet."

Pretty nasty. But I re-read his post and it never asked for advice, just "Look at this!" His responses to advice is pretty clear.. I'm continuing as usual I have bills to pay. So sympathize till the cows come home, hell, I empathize with him, but advice? Wasted. Dude is hardcore get big and will face the music as is. What if Ronny Coleman had listened to those around him to lay off the heavy weights? Sure... he could walk today unassisted, but would he be Ronnie Coleman? Having said that, I hope you heal up properly and have a healthy long life

And he made alot of stupid financial decisions with expensive trucks/rides and housing more than his income + the bodybuilding life with food+ drugs.

Mike's mall is one of the few malls in the nation where I would gladly take a nap at as I sit face forward on one of those chairs with the face hole, while getting a massage from those chubby Chinese guys.

Remember I told you this:
Dude, you have venous disease with spontaneous rupture of varicose veins. You're likely going to need sclerotherapy to collapse the symptomatic veins, a phlebectomy or an ablation.
If you were in NYC, I'd get you in with a vascular surgeon.
The good thing is you'll be alright. The bad thing is all that blood will stain your carpet. No seriously, the biggest risk is possibly developing a clot in your limbs (DVT) that can become dislodged and travel towards your heart, lungs or brain. That said, ask your primary care doctor if an anticoagulant is right for you.

My bill is in the mail.
Glad to have you back Mikey,

Michael, did they discuss blood thinners with you ?
no Jane ….. not a mention of them at all … ( my blood seems pretty thin tho , almost water like …. I cut myself on the smallest things ( opening an “ RTD protein “ at work and it wouldn’t stop bleeding …. It was shooting out of the vein like water that one time it burst so I dunno?)

DO NOT take any type of blood thinner or anti-coagulant between now and the surgical procedure. Take Absolutely nothing that will act to thin your blood until it is prescribed.
Serious stuff Michael.

Any updates please? Just wondering if Santa brought you some sexy black socks (nh) ;D
Are you mobile/walking OK..?
-
Hope the operations go well. Like one more rep said it could end up serious if a clot travels. Forget the gear. Train for health. We aren't getting any younger and the gear life is a lot of wasted money to get compliments from strangers.

Mike,
One of the perks of going in for these surgeries is that hospitals typically allow you to walk around the hallways in just socks (no robes, let alone underwear, just socks). But not just any socks Michael, instead they give you these non-slip socks which are great to walk in or possibly race down the hallway of a high school with granite floors.

Ask them for a few extras for home use. Walk around the house with them. Use them to snot slip while going up stairs. Hell, while sporting an erection, house your penis in one of them. Either way, get your hands on a few of them and you won't regret it.

lol at the socks …. Umm so they did RFA radio frequency ablation….. basically they cut me open and shoved a Catheter from my calf to my crotch (with a series of shots all up my leg) It hurt …. They would hit a nerve or a vein and it would jump …. Worse part was they wrapped me all up tight like a Mummy ….. I got claustrophobic and had anxiety/ a panic attack and almost got up and left (I just wanted to free my Arms!) other than that it went well ( hurt more than I expected tho) got 3 more procedures….. ( vein was bigger and longer and thicker then they expected) … all in all not bad

And I also get that a lot ;D

Michael, one of the complications associated with RFA is that the patient undergoes a change in their voice. Men get a higher pitch and women a lower pitch after the procedure. Granted the RFA success rate for pain management or venous insufficiency is about 80%, but the downside is that you will sound like a 13 year old tranny once the process is complete.
And you are prohibited from masturbating for a year.
Okay….I might have made that last part up.
Glad to hear that you are doing well and hopefully the remaining work goes well.

No problem Michael.
I will be in Wellington Florida in March. If you live near there I will PM you and take you out for dinner.
So you don’t have to eat at the mall food court everyday.

My man Mike is on the mend......great news.

I imagined Mike talking like Maggie Simpson. Can you make a talking video for us who are following the situation? It would be awesome if it got super high like if you inhaled helium lol. It goes away after a bit right?

This is true. I have a doc that sources my OR for his Coolief procedures. I have seen people come to the appointment in wheelchairs and leave walking with a cane. For knees it is awesome. Shoulders the success rate is slightly lower. Some patients with bad cases have it done every few years.

BIG MIKE!
Could you do an Update video for us (just like those Hospital-vids ESFitness used to make) so we know yer ok???

Heal up quickly. Sounds like the operation/procedure was painful. Hopefully they will have you fixed up and you will be on the mend.
I know you will work hard at rehab when you get the go ahead to do that. When I had rehab for an arm operation the physical therapist said she loved guys that lifted weights because she knew they would work hard to regain function. She said so many people come to physical therapy and think they don't have to work like it's a passive thing and the therapist does the exercises for them. Rightly or wrongly I also did rehab at home after leaving the Physical Therapist do my own stuff to get strength back. Started off with a 2lbs dumbbells and benching just the bar with difficulty when I got the go ahead for rehab. It will be long road back but hopefully not too long for you. Don't be discouraged.
-
Mike, you're a good dude. Get well, stay positive. Your great attitude is your best weapon in the healing process. Full confidence in you. Keep it up and keep the faith. You'll be back.

Your gym background will no doubt help you recover much faster than the average joe! Best wishes.
