Thread: Well I'm home

Tweet

Well I'm home from a nights stay at the hospital after taking an ambulance ride.
Had called the doc about some chest pain I had been having & he told me to go to the hospital, so the wife & I headed that way. Well I hadn't eaten & thought I better before I go because if they keep me it might be a day or two before they let me eat. Needless to say I didn't get that far. We were across the street from the hospital getting ready to go eat when it felt like someone punched me in the chest really hard . So I told the wife to just call 911.
When they got there they gave me some Aspirin's, Nitro and stuck an IV in me then dragged me across the street to the hospital. Well after 2 days worth of tests & a Heart Cath they couldn't find anything other then some slight narrowing in a vein that didn't justify a stent. Doc changed my drugs a bit & put me on a new Cholesterol drug that can be taken 2-3 times a week rather then every day because of the bad side effect Satin's have.
Who knows what it was but it hurt bad enough for me to have the wife call 911, which is something I only do when I can not function correctly. Even the chest, shoulder, neck & arm pain is gone that I was having which the doc told me is a sign of a heart attack but nothing showed up thank God.
Man do I hate those odd ticks, clicks, bumps, burps or whatever you want to call them when the doc gets done doing their thing & just throws their hands in the air & says "I have no idea".

But what was odd the dogs were happier to see me then the wife .
They at least waited at the door for me to come in before sitting down.
But then I knew all they wanted was Biscuits,

Glad to hear you got home OK.

I don't belive it for a minute, You are the leader of the pack.

Glad to hear it worked, and agree it's frustrating when they cannot come up with an answer for everything. Dogs have an amazing sensory system, and know when things are wrong.

You did the right thing all the way around. You only live once. Gonna hate when it happens to me.

Dang, that's scary.. I'm like you and won't call /go in until I can't function.. My cardiologist fumes at me about that! LOL

I hate when that happens. Glad you're ok.

Glad to hear your OK we need all the help us old guys can get.

So pleased to hear you are okay,Joe..hope you can stay away from hospitals for a while..But,I suppose they are where you need to be when ya not well..Hey,dont scare us like this..For myself,,I've had enough scares in the last two weeks...

Glad things check out ok Joe!!!! BTW, you're a lot smarter then me!!!!! The EMT's had to pick me up on the sidewalk to take me to the hospital when I had my biggun'!!!!!!!!

They knew you were OK when you came in the door.
"I need new tires for my Beemer", said the Doc. "Lets see if his insurance will pay for them!"
"I need a blower on my Deuce", said the ER tech. "I want a piece of that pie too!"
And so on, and so on...It's a racket!
