This issue began two weeks ago when Hadzovic explains how he had difficulty breathing and this lasted for multiple days.
“About two weeks ago, Wednesday night, I was having a hard time breathing and I don’t think much of it, kinda feels like walking pneumonia kind of thing.”
The issue continued on Thursday and Friday that week. Hadzovic had difficulty breathing and even struggled to drive. From there, he ended up in urgent care.
Sadik Hadzovic Explains Trip To Hospital
Once Sadik Hadzovic entered the hospital, they began getting his information and vitals. His blood pressure was high and this began the process of finding out what the problem was.
“You are 180/97. He’s like even if this was nerves, it would come down a little but your still hypertension levels and the fact that you are complaining about your lungs, I’m just worried you have a blood clot.”
Once a blood clot was mentioned, doctors wanted to rule it out and this led to more tests. The doctors ran Hadzovic’s blood and it all came back clear.
“Blood work is coming back great. EKG, this is great. Let’s do the echo, echo comes back great.
They scan my belly, everything’s good. Give me the CT scan and it comes back f*cking perfect.”
All tests came back clean so doctors decided to go in a different direction. The nurses began discussing the possibility of panic attacks.
“She just taps me on the chest and tells me, we all deal with stress differently and I was like no f*cking way. Was this stress induced or maybe a panic attack? Apparently you can have a panic attack without even having those panic attack symptoms.”
Hadzovic will now be taking medication for his blood pressure. This is something he struggled with as a kid as well. Hadzovic ended the video by mentioning steroids and how they can impact the symptoms he felt.
“I’m not taking a tremendous amount of steroids at all. In fact, I’m taking one CC of test per week and half a CC of Masteron per week. To me, this is like a very low dose and I’ve been on that for three weeks since these breathing issues.”
