This morning during my shower I started to have severe pains in my chest. It was to the point I called my husband and he actually quickly came because he said I had "that tone" of something being wrong.
On a scale of 1-10 - the pain was a 8. I (stubbornly) didn't want to go to the hospital. Hubby however called the dr;s office and they told him to take me IMMEDIATELY to the hospital. Two things that suprise me on this - one he volunatirly called the dr (
) and two that he actually listend to what they said!
So off to the ER we go. We get there and he tells them I am having chest pains.... I've never been moved so fast through and ER!
After X-rays, CT scans, blood tests, EKG thingy and a few things I don't remember - they proclaimed my heart OK - but that I had "thicking of the lower esophagus" due to acid reflux.
A refelif! I never realized that "heartburn" could hurt so dang much! 7 hours of waiting - my hubby came through like a champ - he hates waiting and he hates when I am sick.
Even though I already knew this, it drove it home: Life is short. Enjoy it while you can.
