Today I took off to get plates for my car. Smooth sailing (other than the price) in and out in 20 minutes. Howver, I get home to my husband saying he is feeling "weird" and doesn't feel like he can get a deep breath. No pain, no numbness.
So, he calls the VA to make an appointment and the woman tells him to call 911. We hop in the car and head out to the VA. All the while Hubby saying if he feels different he'll let me know, etc, etc.
We get there and he gets in pretty quick intitially. Lab work. Pee test. Blood pressure is a bit elevated. By the time the tech is finished with all the paperwork it has come down.
Then we wait.............................
2 hours later we get in to see the doctor. Thank heavens nothing is wrong, like a heart attack. Pretty darn healthy. However, seems to be a case of anxiety.
So he goes back tomorrow for a chest x-ray and an EKG to be safe, a thorough checkup and hopefully something to quit smoking! *relief*
What a challenging day. I'm glad your husband was able to get the help he needed. That certainly must have been a very frightening time.
ReplyDeleteGotta love the ridiculous waits when there's something wrong with him!
ReplyDeleteThank goodness he's ok and it wasn't anything too serious.
Hospitals have to be the most frustrating places on earth. And I should know...I'm an RN! LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad everything was essentially okay.
