Last night while playing hockey, I got really short of breath and my heart rate got elevated.. Then my focus and eyesight got blurry, I lost hearing and collapsed on my knees.y teammate gave me a couple puffs of albuterol and that helped. The rest of the game it was hard to catch my breath and at one point it started again. But I leaned back and took some deep breaths and it went away. When I got to the locker room my teammates said my speech was slurred, but got better in 30 min.
