Lynne, I'm so sorry that you had another episode - but i'm glad that you went to the doctor and they don't think it is your heart. I hope they can find out what the heck is wrong though!

Diana! That happened to my son-in-law too, except they didn't put him in the hospital - they just ran a lot of tests and decided it too, was anxiety. That must have been very scary!

Hi Lynne, I'm hoping you are feeling better today!

I don't want to scare you, but did they work you up for MS (multiple sclerosis). I do NOT think that is what this is, but you should be checked for it, given some of your symptoms, e.g., numbness, weakness and tingling.

Oh Thanks Gayle, here i was scared to death i was having a heart attack and now you don't want me to be scared about this LOL, just kidding you.

But no they didn't check for that.

Not sure if i had mentioned it or not but my leg has been killing me for about the past month, i went to the Dr for that and he wanted to start with the predisone and Tramadol, well that did not work, it's still hurting. The ER Dr did look at my leg to see if he thought there might be a clot and he did not think so. I do have an MRI scheduled but it's not till the 22nd, not sure i can hold out that long.

As for the chest pain, my Dr said to try the Previcide, so i started it today, i did not realize it was a 14 day pack every 4 months, i don't understand how it continues to work for the 4 months. I also scheduled a stress test, but not sure if i will keep that app or not, the ER Dr and my Dr were both pretty sure it was not my heart, so why go through that, it also is not till the 22nd. I am thinking it is more of a gastrol ?, not sure i could make it through the stress test with my leg any ways.

I did go back to work today and other than being tired and my leg hurting, i'm ok.

I'm eating light and smaller portions so as not to fill myself up, but hubby is getting on me about my weight, he says i am skin and bones and don't look healthy. I know i am exerting more energy just walking and just like before my back surgery i lost so much weight.

Good gosh i am such a mess, i've never been like this before and i am not liking it at all. Only a couple of more days and the puppies will be in their new homes, so that will be one less thing i have to dael with, as much as i will miss them, they have been good babies.
Ok i will stop complaining now.

Lynne....I'm worried that the dr. hasn't found anything out yet. Please take care of yourself!!!


Yes, Gayle....it was VERY scary. I couldn't get a hold of Glen on the phone so I drove to the shop with Jaci with me. She was only about 9 or so and with the pain and feeling like I was going to pass out......the trip was very scary. I was so worried about passing out and having an accident with her with me.

I eventually found Glen and we drove to the dr's office. When they took my blood pressure it was sky high.....and I was put immediately in the hospital. The sad part was that I wasn't treated for anxiety....I was treated for high blood pressure and the meds weren't doing anything. I had several days where I really thought that I was going to die of a heart attack. I finally went to another doctor when mine went out of town and he treated me for anxiety........after that I was soooo much better!!! I changed doctors after that!!!!
