I realize this isn't the best topic for discussion, but I figured it could benefit you in the long run.
I recently came across a thread about a relatively young gamer who passed away due to cardiac arrest and wanted to share this information.
I am "grandpa aged". I started gaming with computers when playing football (American football) meant loading a 5 1/4" floppy and seeing X's and O's battle it out on screen. I spend alot of time at my computer. I game at least 6 hours a day to keep myself occupied and have had gaming sessions last up to 35 hours. Several of my, seemingly healthy "gamer friends" (young and old) have had heart attacks and I came across this article (2nd such article I've seen about this).

Here's hoping I'll see you on the battlefield or behind the wheel of a car for many years to come.
Take care of yourself.
