Yep you guessed it. ME!

Approximately 2:00 a. M. Saturday morning I woke form my sleep because I had discomfort in my chest. I decided to get up and do a little walking around and paced for about an hour. During that time I thought that this just may be a little heartburn, so I chomped a few Tums and waited it out. It didn't help, and the pain did not subside. After the hour I decided to wake my wife and talk to her about what was going on. We though it was a good idea that I talked to my primary care doc. I had just seen my doctor on Wednesday as I had a nasty cold virus and just started taking Amoxil the previous evening.

After touching base with the doctor we all agreed that because the pain is on the right side of my chest that it needs to be checked out. I got dressed, told my wife I'll calll her when I find out what's going on. I then drove myself to the hospital.

I have been here since that time, and am writing this from a hospital computer. I'm currently hooked up to a couple of IV's (blood thinners) and am relaxing. I have a angiogram scheduled for tomorrow.

The pain did subside somewhere around 6:00 a.m. Saturday morning, they transfered me to the heart hospital (located on another floor) around 9:00 a.m.

Personally I think they are going to find anything. Not too long ago I had a stress test as well as an untrla fast heart scan. (Yes, heart disease runs in my family.)

My personal opinion is, this has something to do with the virus and sickness I experienced just last week. But we will see what happens.

The most important thing is that, I'll be back!
See you soon, and please go wash off some of that "LUSH", it's embarassing! XD

Hmmm... Napalm gets to inhale radioactive gas. How fitting is that?

Hope the results are good. I have a friend who found out she needed a major lung surgery after one of those tests. Her symptoms were waaay different though.They took out a whole mess of clots and now she's doing great.

See Nap's post near the end of page one for details

Looks like I just can't fail one of these tests. I'm very proud of that though. Everything looks good! No clots what-so-ever.

I was instructed to monitor and report anything significant. OK, time to play TT!

Make sure you camp since it's a good way to chill your heart rate.
Camping makes you live longer
