Back here, for the second time... #69

[Kalni]

H had an accute chest pain last night and his left arm got numb. He said he got very scared and the pain was very strong...

He didnt wake me up because the pain went away after 5-10 minutes. He told me today on the phone. I googled it and it said it may had been a mini heart attack or warning signs for one coming. Or it was just a stress attack. Granted he smokes and never exercises, a herat attack would not surprise me.

Whatever it was, I booked an apt with a cardiologist in 2 hours (the doc said he needa to be checked today). I told him I cant leave to go meet him and he said "he will wait for me" which alarmed me more because it is his way of telling me he is scared and wants me there.

I hope it turns out nothing.

Need to stop scratching the scar or it will heal very slowly.

Well that is two positives and one negative. Hopefully your MC can help you on point #3.

I hope the love of your life is ok....sometimes we get warnings from our body to change our ways. Heart problems can sure scare the you know what out of you.

Kalni,

I went through the same sensation on W's b-day while we were VERY seperated and went to the ER.

EKG clean, no pinched nerve, these are the tests they should run.

Still have no conclusive results as to what caused it and still have problems with my left arm and I'm the same, smoke and not very athletic. For now they wrote it of as a "temperal parathesis" and can come and go on it's own. They did however find an irregularity with a head CT that I still ahve to have an MRI for a more definative answer.


So don't freak just yet.

Praying for your H Maria. If it is some sort of a blockage then I'm sure they caught it in time. Good for him for telling you about it. You know how men are, they usually don't say anything about the pain until they end up in the hospital from something that could have been treated with less extreme measures.

Hope H is OK. May just be stress. Fingers crossed.

Great to see you in piecing again!

hey! I resent, I mean, resemble that remark

[Kalni]

The first test he had showed nothing. It is a heart test. Could that be the EKG dday mentioned?
He needs to do the one where he runs till he drops? Doc said he looks fine told him to cut back on the smoking and rest. I didnt manage to go. He called me on the way and said to go back home, he was done and was heading to work. He said he was very scared last night.

Yeah, EKG is where they run a snesing wire for all major veins blah blah blah.

Believe me, I was scared to poo, especially when I called the ER and they said GET HERE NOW.

[MichelleLT]

Hmmm, well, glad there was nothing obviously wrong. Probably just stress. He has been a workaholic for a while, maybe it is finally catching up to him.

Hopefully this helps him to put his priorities in better order.

Love that you are over in piercing.

Hang in there my dear.
