Hey guys,
So yesterday we are sitting in 70 feet of water just doing some skills and drills. When I turned my head to the left to check out my buddy I did so just as I was taking a deep breath and ended up pulling my regulator out of my mouth taking in a fair bit of water.
Long story short... I was able to overcome that horrible feeling and finally got breathing correctly and we ended our dive, I felt fine however still had the feeling I was going to vomit again and some minor chest discomfort... Figured it was from the violet cough/vomiting and swallowing of water.
We completed our dive at an extra slow accent and extra on the safety had a coughing fit at 25 feet got out of the water and brought up some more fluid but all seemed fine.
Got up this morning not feeling the best, coughing and felt gurgling in my chest so off I went to get it checked out.
-Blood test shows my o2 stats good
-Chest X-rays showed clear lungs, gurgling the doc said I probably brought up on the way to the hospital when I had a coughing fit.
-Completed a pulmonary lung test and passed that with out issue.
Mentioned to the ER doc what was required of me for any sort of recovery, he suggested that I still had some fluid in my lung and on the accent the coughing fit at 25 feet cleared it however the fluid caused some minor expansion on the lungs which is why I had the discomfort however the test show everything is fine.
I have emailed this to DAN and waiting a reply, I asked about diving and he said I would not go dive the titanic, however there is no reason to stay out of the water"
Just wondering if anyone else has had this sort of issue? If so what where you told?
Thanks in advance,
Michael.
