We don't want to experience such hardships and difficulties but it just comes naturally based on our choices and the decisions that we make. And there's no other result if someone is an addicted gambler. There goes the result that typically are good in the beginning for that made a person addicted to gambling.

But we all know what's the end game of it or the long term results of it and that is going to make someone financially unwell. As we tell other gamblers to control themselves and when they go the point of losing everything, that starts to affect their health as well when they can no longer bear the losses.

This happens because they themselves respond wrongly to gambling, thus making them addicted to gambling, because in my opinion someone who is addicted to gambling, of course the addiction alone will damage their mind, and over time they will be affected by mental stress, as well as other health problems. could be affected by gambling addiction, if they responded to gambling appropriately perhaps this would not have happened. because addiction often leads to bad things, such as gambling or drug addiction, both of these things have the same side, namely they have bad effects if you become addicted to gambling.

someone who is addicted to gambling will of course experience financial difficulties, while everyone certainly doesn't want to experience problems in any way, especially from a financial perspective, if they experience financial problems then it is likely that they will experience stress because of the financial problems that many people feel. people, not even just people who are addicted to gambling. Financial problems can make someone stressed, therefore I think don't gamble excessively because it can have an impact on our mental condition and thoughts or more specifically our own health.

I haven't checked my health status, but I feel like my pressure is dropping or going up along with the increased heartbeat. In particular, when I experience loss and go for an increased bet amount, the heart pumping increases drastically. I can experience it, and I don't want this to happen to me. If I take gambling as fun and don't feel bad about losing, I think our health will be good. When we fear losing, the body is reacting greatly, and the same could end life.

I have relatively rarely heard of cases of people having a heart attack from unexpected good news. But this really happens. By the way, health problems can be expressed not only in a heart attack. This could be an attack of bronchial asthma or an exacerbation of a gastric ulcer. Sometimes even a migraine attack. As a rule, this happens when a person’s disease is in an already advanced stage. In the initial stages of the disease, it is almost impossible to see an attack because of the very good good news. What can I recommend here? There is only one thing: if you have a disease at such a stage that even good news can have a negative impact, then protect yourself from any excitement and certainly not gamble.

Over excitement has dire consequences, that's basically abuse of happiness, and its dangerous to the health, although sometimes, you can't control it, especially when it comes to gambling, your seeing that kind of big win will definitely trigger that outburst of excitement that will force blood with high pressure into your arteries thereby distorting its normal function, weakening it in the process,  leading to possible stroke or instant death, depending on the extent of the damage.
Gambling in moderation is the answer here, when you gamble without expecting anything from the casinos, you can better manage your emotions  when such wins manifest as compared to when you're gambling carelessly and you're under great pressure and expecting that win to sort out a lot of things. When such wins occur under such high pressure and expectant mind, the excitement is sometimes detrimental to the health. I've seen some people that win big, and had to catch their breath for some time before even responding to congratulatory messages from co gamblers and friends nearby, they're young people though and  you can Imagine the possible effect on the old ones.

I am not aware of my health condition while gambling, and nobody can predict when a stroke might occur, whether mild or severe. Fortunately, your friend's son was with him when it happened. I'm curious to know how much money your friend won to trigger his medical condition. I think his luck wasn't drained by winning, and he still has the luck to have his sons around him.

People who go to the doctor regularly should already know what they can and cannot do to take care of their health. If the doctor says that we should not experience excessive shock, we should stop gambling so that we don't experience excessive shock because it can cause problems with our health. But there are still stubborn gamblers who don't want to obey what their doctor says and think they are still healthy. But when they get too much of a shock while gambling, that's when their heart can't stand it and ultimately makes them lose their lives in the casino. This could lead to the casino being blamed for allowing customers with heart disease to gamble even though the casino doesn't know anything about the customer's health history.

We have to think about our health and not other people, and we often gamble, so maybe it's time for us to really reduce our gambling activities so that we can enjoy life well. After all, there is nothing wrong with reducing gambling if it is for our health, especially if we still want to live longer and still want to fight to recover from the disease.

You're correct as we have other activities that are affecting our health more worse than gambling, gambling affect eyesight as you spend hours looking at the screen of your devices use in gambling but there's trading that also affect your eyesight more worse as many individuals spend more time trading too. Gambling can affect our mental health when we lose money and trading too can do the same as we also lose money trading as much as we lose money gambling.

Everything we do can affect our health therefore we're to take care of our health as we can't stop doing everything we do to get money to spend for our expenses or having entertainment. When we visit the doctor regularly we'll be aware of our health challenges and can take the best precaution to avoid collapsing and dying or having other risky health challenges that'll be dangerous to our life.

self-containment is of course one way to embark such situation. however, it is understandable if we feel happy about things and rejoice as normal human beings. but see to it that you can handle yourself such extreme emotions especially if you have existing heart disease or any health disorder that is detrimental to your life.

in short, you need to be aware of your health concerns and know how to manage it under extreme circumstances. in that way, you can save your life if in case something unexpected happens. should always be on the lookout also with symptoms or warnings. so you can act accordingly before it is too late.

The world of gambling indeed encompasses a diverse range of people, each with their own unique goals, preferences, and risk tolerances. Gamblers may have different financial aspirations. Some seek modest gains to meet immediate needs or enjoy the thrill of small victories, while others aim for substantial winnings to achieve significant life goals. Gamblers who aim to win smaller amounts might be people who want to just enjoy the thrill of the game. This must be healthy gamblers, phisically and mentally, who wouldnt invite stress to their well-being.

Some gamblers set high standards for their winnings that can provide opportunities for financial security, lifestyle improvements, or the realization of long-term goals. People with high aspirations may be willing to take calculated risks, believing that the potential rewards justify the gamble. The idea is that winning big can significantly contribute to personal and financial advancement. The belief in their capacity to control emotional responses is a common trait among risk-takers. Gamblers may feel that, with self-discipline and emotional regulation, they can handle the outcomes of their wagers.

It must be said that if it weren't for gambling, we would still have many other things around that affect our health. I can feel the OP's story but it's not everything that exists in the gambling. Looking at this issue from the perspective of a patient, what you need to do is protect your own health, not equate it with activities surrounding it.

I can describe a case from my own perspective that when I heard the news of winning the lottery, I was happy and jumped around the house and accidentally hit the chair. Yep, I hurt my leg as well as damaged the chair because I lost my temper. Sometimes some external things act as a trigger to stimulate us, but in fact, if we understand ourselves, we will have more control and calmness in every situation.

I wish a quick recovery to your father! I also encountered a similar situation with my close friend, he quickly recovered and now even walks and talks. What can be said for sure is that we need to take care of our health from a young age and approach gambling seriously and take care of our nerves, I when I’m playing, trying not to be nervous and to have as much fun as possible, since that’s the goal of gambling.

Having issues with pressure and mental conditions really can cause a lot of attacks and anxiety. And with that, it affects our body but I'd leave to the medical experts to give tips on how it is.

But as someone who grows older and sees that these emotional encounters that we do really affects our health when we're pressured and stressed.

I have no idea what my mental and body state is right now but I think that I am fine for now.

Health is number one of everything, and only we ourselves know health. If, for example, we are sick or there are signs that we are going to get sick, it's a good idea not to go to the casino even if we are accompanied by friends, because it is very risky for our own health. Moreover, when playing casino games there will definitely be pressure or turmoil that is unexpected and can be surprising. If you have hypertension, you are at risk of stroke.

It's strange that there are people who ignore illness and prioritize going to the casino, for me this has become an addiction because I can't think realistically. However, if there are no signs of the disease, but when we are in the casino the disease comes suddenly and is beyond our control, then every time we go to the casino it would be better if we went with friends, besides that. Avoid sudden illness, this also avoids the risk of robbery or fraud. Because gambling or casino areas usually have a lot of crime.

We need to know ourselves before gambling. Discovering for the first time that gambling could trigger his hypertension, shows the person may not have been checking his reaction to sudden situations. Winning big, for instance, could lead to shock, to some gamblers, because they never thought about winning such an amount that day, or it could be something they have been imagining to have in a distant time. The person in Op's story, his friend, may have had a similar encounter in the past, even before gambling. But, he didn't look into it or thought gambling could make him feel that way again. Having people around him, in such a condition can help in fastening treatment if he experiences such a sudden occurrence in his life again. Gamblers do feel anxiety, but wouldn't stop because they're looking to gain more money. Anxiety has led many to problem gambling and caused damage to their friendship with family.

These experiences could compound to the extent the gambler now spends money on gambling without feeling any pain or remorse after losing. Hence those who know that gambling could cause them pain, anxiety, or hypertension don't need to gamble again. If he's won the jackpot, taking a break is crucial for his health. No need to practice the same gambling which can lead him to have such a problem again. If he breaks down, or while he was in the hospital, he wasn't able to gamble. That's what we need to consider when going contrary to what our health practitioner told us regarding our health. The doctor who treated Op's friend is expected to warn him to give gambling a huge gab and enjoy his winnings. I think on his end, he wants to wager all the money he's won, before realizing he's making a mistake. Would he be able to get hold of himself if he wins big, eventually, again? it's the question to ask himself, before trying to gamble again.

The truth of it all is that, it is not everyone inside the gambling world that have a specific amount of money they want to win.
However, everyone has a standard, some gamblers wants to win big while some wants to win little money.
And still those gamblers that wants to win little they might be trying to keep safety measures so that they will not become a victim of hart attack (when they win big money), meanwhile, those with high standards will want to win big so that they might be able to meet up in life.
Although, there are other gamblers who's BPs (high blood pressures) are high but they will still want to risk their life by staking big, because they believe that they can be able to control their feels when they win and when they lose.

Aside from gambling, one should maintain a healthy lifestyle. Your body automatically changes when you are above 40, exercises and frequent medical checkups is very important for your health. I’m not that old to worry about having a heart attack or a stroke anytime soon. If you have a heart condition, you should not be doing anything that can cause too much excitement or trigger a heart attack. Gambling should not be a choice for you and your family would not want to take  that risk with you.

For that problem, of course, applying caution and vigilance when we are in a gambling session is indeed recommended because however prevention must be prioritized to minimize so that the amount of our defeat is not too large. Checking health consistently every certain period of time is good because with that, the state of our health will be controlled but do you know that only a few people will care about their health? usually such people are those who have good finances or rich people, while isn't gambling for everyone? obviously, meaning that the situation is not as easy as you say because maybe some people are busier for other things, and also for poor or middle class people they will be more concerned with other things than doing health checks, the limited money factor is one of the problems.

We must know that there are also many poor people who gamble but are not at all concerned about their health, it will all come back to each individual, if they think health is more important then they will definitely do frequent checks but if they are more concerned with other things such as gambling even though basically it is an activity that is not recommended then surely they will still choose it. On the other hand, I'm sure the person mentioned by the OP is one of the people I mentioned.

None of us know when he might have a stroke. It can happen either while gambling or walking to the store. No one is immune to this and the older you are the more likely it is. It seems to me that it is impossible to fully prepare yourself for it. Many people during a stroke are not only unable to call someone, they can't even remember their own name. It is good if it happens at home when relatives are around, but if it happens in the street, at such a moment you have to hope that passers-by will react in time and call an ambulance.

It’s common for a player to hope for the best, we all want to hope for that, don’t we? But in reality this does not happen and it turns out that we are deceiving ourselves by entering the game again and again. Of course, there are many who would rather not enter the game, because it will shake their nerves so much that they won’t want to do anything else in life, their nerves will be destroyed or permanent depression will arise. These are very serious problems and many people think that this will happen to anyone, but only to him. I want to say that you should always feel how much the game affects your sleep and wallet. If there is nothing from this, then it is obvious that you can’t play anymore.
