My Heart SCARED ME For Halloween, And A BIG Workin’ Man WIN!

[@keithpowell2786]

Great interview glad to see a working man win the tournament Luke, take care of yourself, brother I know where you’re coming from, last fall went to the ER twice with terrible jaw, pain, neck pain left arm pain in the first time they kept me overnight done a Cath and sent me home and said I did have a blockage but seem to be causing that much problem 70% in my Widowmaker course that makes you feel real comfortable and a week and a half later I was right back hurting worse than the first time we did the echo and stress test in my heart doctor came in and said we don’t understand all the pain you’re in but you’re not leaving till we find out. I said you not worry I’m not leaving. So they done a full MRI and they found my problem was my C1 through six collapsed and all the nerves on my left side of my body or pinched, and it was creating the sensation of a heart attack so off to surgery we go, but we’re still watching the blockage in my Widowmaker. Glad to hear you’re taking this serious

I met the owner of Rowdy Buzz in a Chevy dealer in Highland Indiana. Great guy. Gave me a few buzz baits to try out. Great bait. Better than a boogerman for sure

[@chrishampton8842]

Nick seems like a real dude, great guest and congrats to him. Now take care of yourself Luke

[@barryprice7692]

Take care brother!! I passed out in May because of a heart issue. Luckily, it was just an electrical problem and not any type of valve or blockage. Had my ablation and good as new. Stay on top of it!!

[@Tony-450]

Take care of yourself, brother. All prayers 🙏🏽 💪🏾

[@jeffriggle4127]

Great show my man ! Keep on rolling, sending prayers for your healing and comfort.

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

Thank you sir!

[@andrewpiper4693]

Praying for you Luke, sending you positive thoughts and prayers from your friend from Canada

[@jimbaumgardner1436]

Damn. Glad you’re ok. Heart stuff is definitely scary. I had a minor stroke last year at 49 yrs old. Lifestyle changes and some meds got me straightened out. Good show with Nick

[@ericcochran5112]

Thank you Luke for the update. I was really wondering what was going on and I’ve never even met you. I just listen to this addictive stupid podcast every Monday 😄

[@toddbrown9398]

Alexa trying to finish you off!! Lol😂

[@F.Ronnie]

Thanks Luke. Great show.

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!

[@garyhancook5207]

Just got my LOB jigs. Can't wait to try them out.

[@mtayloroutdoors]

Praying for you Luke. Take care of yourself, your health is one of the hardest but most important investments in you and your families life.

[@jeremypruitt138]

Another awesome show Luke. I will say the Alexa incident had to be one of the funniest moments I have ever seen on here. I laughed entirely too hard. All serious notes though I hope that everything with your heart will turn out to be nothing major. sending prayers

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

Brother…. I’m still shook over Alexa 😂. Had zero clue there was one anywhere around…. Thank you!

[@bobbycolson1957]

That's exciting about Darien please let us know when it airs

[@derektaylorfishing]

I feel your pain on the bad Octobers. It almost took me out one day.

[@jasonhenson4711]

Luke, it sounds like your troponin level was high on your lab work. That's the cardiac enzyme that indicates stress or damage to your heart. That and the family history that you said would lead me to think it wouldn't be a bad idea for you to have a heart cath. That would make sure that you don't have a blockage in one of your coronary arteries that could kill you. The procedure isn't bad. I work in the cath lab and help the Cardiologist do these everyday. If you have any questions or concerns about this test or what's going on, I would be happy to talk to you. I think anyone reading this that is over 35 with family history of heart disease should look into having a cardiac calcium score test done. Its a quick CT scan that your PCP can order that looks for cacium build up in or around the heart. Which could be an early indicator of coronary artery blockage. Btw signed up for my first season on the ABT North division next year. Everything if watched and heard about the Alabama Bass Trail has been outstanding.

[@stephenknight7601]

Great show bro. Prayers for your health. Question what kind of charger are you using. I have lithium on TM reg starting and lithium for electronics. Have problems with my PPole charger thinking of something new.

[@GaryLyson]

Take care of yourself man. Thanks for sharing. Will be thinking of you man.

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

Thank you!

[@kennethfedder8995]

Stay well and feel better!

[@chundle09]

lol the Alexa thing made me laugh harder than it should. The look on your face😂 In all seriousness.. Hoping best on your health man!

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

I had to change my underwear. Freaked me out 😂. No clue that thing was around. Thank you!

[@rickrobinson7032]

Hey, you Low lifer take care of yourself. We all want you above the ground,not below. Sending well wishes from my family to you

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

Thank you! I want to stick around too!

[@eastTnbigs]

I don’t know these guys now but I will this time next year because of the rule change I will be watching next season. I’m excited to get to watch fishing again

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

💪🏼💪🏼

[@zacheryboggs9700]

Luke I enjoy you’re music, that tune with the striped down fiddle “better by the glass” I think is the title? Is a great song. I hope you take this as a compliment but you’re vocals reminds me of Kix Brooks.

[@Bowersoutdoors]

Diet is the right way to go. Had some things going on like that. Come down to it my sugar was really high. Cut out all them sweets and started eating better. Lost 40 pounds and things are better. Stay safe.

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

Totally agree. Diet can control everything. That’s for sure. Got to get on the horse!

[@bigbuck2720]

You'll never know until a heart cath, took me a year of every test available and finally pushed for heart cath, heard cardiologist and nurse talking as they were walking after and heard him say 90 percent and widow maker, needless to say I had a double bypass less than a month later. Push your cardiologist

[@edwood1424]

Hay Luke take it serious. Im 77 and when I was 57 had a aoertic valve replaced and 15 yrs later and had another one replaced. Like your shows and all so take care and get it taken care of.

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

Thank you Ed!

[@samuelschult985]

Luke it starteat 27:44 OK back to the video.

[@user-iy6rz1eq9x]

What you think about Bass no entry fee next year

[@jcreel4055]

Them talking ladies will get you every time

[@jeffporter100]

Hope you are doing well. I definitely don’t regret getting the vaccine as people younger than me were dying in the ICU because of the infection.

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

I had so many folks I knew that were impacted by it and that led me to the vaccine. Just so much information and misinformation out there. Confusing and scary!

[@GREGORYJHALL]

You don't regret it till you have issues my son has a autoimmune issue due to getting the jab at 27 years old just because he wanted to go to a concert. Been diagnosed by a doctor said he sees it everyday now in vaccinated people

[@chasinthedreamwithericdani2411]

I lost 60 pounds in a year, go buy a case of Premier Protein shakes at Costco or Sam’s. This is a great way to get a nutritional meal quickly and tastes incredible! Great for on the go lifestyle.

[@justinmarbut4331]

Man I had 2 spells where I had 2 different times where out of nowhere my chest started hurting and heart went up to high 160ish beats per minute and the cardio told me it was either the vaccine or post covid whatever they called it but then asked me if I drink alot of caffeine and I said yes of course those energy drinks got me years ago and he told me that that valve was swollen and was making me have a reaction to caffeine but in short said it was because of covid or the vac and that's what made it swollen and that made me have the caffeine reaction...weird man but I'm 39 190 ish so I'm like u shouldn't be having this kinda mess and the one thing I regret in life is the vaccine but when I got it there was guys I knew that were in tip top shape dying so I got it thinking hell if they're having those problems hell I won't make it! But man I regret that. Since I got it I've had more health problems since that and I use to never have health issues!...just thought I'd share maybe it will help some1...hope all is good dude! Just to add something the only reason I figured out what was going on the cardio was out the 2nd time I went back and the NP saw me and her husband had dealt with it and that's how she put 2 and 2 together

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

Thank you for sharing man! That’s wild. So scary where all of this stuff has gone for so many folks.

[@dwa3093]

Stay on top of your health.....you only get one shot at it

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

No doubt!

[@KentGoins-u9h]

Wait till then VOLS get ahold of them cats Saturday night in The dark. GO VOLS. Don't let your Alabama friends forget that Alabama football don't belong in Tennessee and that for sure is Vanderbilt GO VOLS

[@John-cq1hr]

Take it from someone who's had heart issues from birth. It gets better once you know what's wrong and what a long-term plan will be. I'm sure everything will be fine. .. Hang in there..... Goodluck.

[@steveparker7240]

Myocarditis. Did I win? Get checked out. Pericarditis comes on suddenly and goes away quickly. Your symptoms are persistent. ECG, MRI, X-ray viewed by a competent cardiologist should confirm. I'm surprised they didn't do an angiogram at the hospital, unless they didn't have a catherization lab. My heart doctor made me get an angiogram based on an abnormal stress test, turns out the test was abnormal but I wasn't. On a happier note, I whacked them while you were suffering.

[@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus]

Thank you Steve! Glad you caught some
