Health issues?
That was a scare last night!!
I suddenly experienced pain in the chest, pressure on the chest bone. It wasn’t severe but I thought I had to stay safe so I laid down and the pain went away within 5 minutes, no big deal. The pressure returned half an hour later so I wasn’t reassured and called the emergency doctor’s phone.
They wanted to send an ambulance nonetheless and do a heart film. Within 10 minutes they arrived: two men in full gear and they examined me carefully. The heart film turned out okay, blood pressure was fine and sugar level was fine.
But they thought I had to make an appointment with my doctor the following morning so I did. I made an appointment for next week to see if another ECG is in order.
My mother had Angina Pectoris when she was 45 and my father was a heart patient who died of an aneurysm so I have a family history of heart and vein issues. I myself am overweight, am a smoker and suffer from Diabetes type 2, so I am a candidate for heart and vein issues.
It scared me a bit, although I was reassured by the result of the heart film.
It probably is also a bit stress related, I am not good with stress but I have to rule out physical problems first. So next week I go to my doctor to do some more tests. Fingers crossed!
