In hospital!

[lorrieandjas]

What a day - started off normal enough and then about 10:30 today started feeling really strange. Then bam - couldn't breathe, shakes, nearly passed out, throat felt blocked. Called the ambos and got checked out. Taken to hospital where so far have had chest x-rays, CT scan of my brain, ultrasound of my carotid arteries and an MRI of my throat and face. Blood tests too. And guess what - all bloody normal. The only symptom the hospital witnessed was a BP of 160/120. Now it's at 122/80 (where it's normally at).

So now they're keeping me in overnight for observation.

What a day. And the worst part of it - the look of total fear on my girls face......

Hope y'all are having a better day!

Yeh blame Scotty *L*

Been there done that..............

Many years ago I had slight chest pains at work and didn't think much of it, kept working as you do. After work I had to pick my daughter up from my parents which is around a half hour drive, didn't even get half way there and the chest pains became unbearable for a few mins then settle down then became unbearable again, pulled over a few times fearing that I might have an accident. Finally got there and dad took one look at me and new something was wrong, I though if I laid down for a few mins I would feel better............big mistake, rather than risking driving my daughter back home my old man ended up driving me up to the hospital. After a lengthy wait at the hosp 2 see a doctor and after some chest scans, I found out I had a partial collapsed lung and there was nothing they could do for it, just had to wait a few days to see if it came good.

Hope its nothing to serious mate

That's no good mate hope its nothing serious all the best and hopefully the nurses are looking after you

Hope all is ok mate, have had a similar scare myself and like yours the tests showed nothing.
Always best to take no chances and get checked.
