Beading and a scare

I sat down yesterday morning, Our 52nd wedding anniversary to do some
bead work.
My heart went into over drive doing 99 bonk. Then a heavy pressure in my
chest. DH rang our GP who could not see me until the afternoon. Pain got
worse so DH put me in the car and rushed me to the hospital where I had
my bypass and stents. My heart rate had gone up to 144 beat per minute.

I spent 24 hours in hospital, fortunately no damage done to my heart but
it has left me feeling very shaky.

The bead project will have to wait. It was a very frightening
experience.
Hugs

Oh my gosh Shirley, that must have been a huge scare! I'm surprised you
are up and posting again so quickly. I'm glad to hear that your heart
is still in good shape though.

Best,
Christine

Nah, you didn't lose one of the 9. Just got nearby and waved to it.

So glad you're better, Shirley -- tell your dang heart to stop scaring
us!

LOVE LOVE LOVE

That GP should have directed you to the ER immediately! You don't fool
around with such things (and thank goodness you didn't). So many physicians
*still* don't think "heart problem" when a woman has these symptoms. We
have to take care of ourselves, because many in the medical community are
behind the times.

rant on

Ladies, did you know that a woman's heart attack symptoms may be dismissed
as indigestion? We often don't have that "pain in the arm" that many men
have. Instead, we may have nausea and neck pain. So don't be "brave" if you
get suddenly sick ... go to the ER! And don't let them tell you to sit and
wait while the "emergencies" are dealt with, because YOU are having the
emergency.

rant off

Back to your beading, now.

Besides -- if you call 911, your house fills up with beefy, darling

It is good that you're ok and that you had help when it was needed.
It's hard to believe a GP would not take you seriously after a bypass
though! Make sure to tell him about it.

Ingrid

Oh, Shirley..what a scare is right! Please feel better soon...and
gently enjoy that anniversary.
