So, we just got home from the ER.
DH called and said he was having a heart attack and needed to go to the ER. When I picked him up from where he was he was crying and couldn't breathe. We raced over to the hospital and he told them what his symptoms were and they immediately took him back and hooked him up to the EKG.
They took blood and ran a battery of tests - all of which came back normal. They checked his heart patterns and breathing - they said that was normal too.
So he was having intense chest pains, shooting pains down his back and left arm and couldn't breathe and they couldn't find anything. I'm pretty frustrated and scared and he's just pissed because he knows there's something wrong.
So now we're at home and he's hanging out on the couch. I am relieved because if it was something major I'd like to think they caught it. I'm really glad he's "ok", but sad because he's still in pain and I don't know what to do for him.
Thank you to everyone for all the T&Ps! I really, really appreciated that. And reading the texts helped me from not fainting while they were hooking tubes and needles to my poor DH.
And, I am SO bummed I missed the GTG and had to cancel - I desperately need some girl time!!! Now I have a giant thing of pina colada mix and pineapple rum chilling. And an apple pie.
So maybe we can reschedule for something sooner than a month out??
And Joliene - I planned a great "Big Apple" themed party for you! I bought all kinds of cute red apple things to decorate. So sorry. Let's try to get together this week or maybe next weekend so I can see you and Morgan before you leave.
And Erin - We're still on for tomorrow. Just let me know about what time you'll be by. The boys got a new toy to share with her, too.
Re: Update...
I'm so sorry he's still in pain. : (
I'm up for another GTG! : ) I don't really have anything specific planned until school starts, except for yoga next Saturday morning. Does anyone else want to go with daisy & me?
Hi Jeni,
I'm so sorry your DH is still in pain. That sounds so scary! I hope they figure out what was wrong with him though. How frustrating that they didn't find anything! GL to him.
I'm sorry the GTG got canceled. I'm not sure when I'll have time again. This week our downstairs floors are getting replaced and next weekend we have a birthday party and MIL and SIL are coming up for RFTC. And the weekend after that we're thinking of going camping. I could do a weeknight possibly.

First of all you are adorable for buying "big apple" decorations. I'm sorry you had to go through what you did today. I hope Neil gets back on his feet soon. It must be hard being in pain & not knowing what is going on. I am definitely up for another GTG soon. I'm always up for more girl time & I will make sure that you pina colada mix does not go to waste.
Em-- I def want to try aerial yoga but I am already volunteering next Sat. Are there other days that you are going?
I think daisy and I are going to try to go each week, and the two classes that work the best for us are Friday nights from 7:15 to 8:15, or Saturday mornings from 9 to 10.
I don't really have a time preference either way; whatever works best for you guys works for me. I just like having someone that I know there so I'm less intimidated. : )
I'm so so so glad that DH is ok! Mike had a similar scare a couple of months ago, same symptoms, he was in so much pain he was nauseous and dizzy... Turns out, he had severe indigestion.. It now happens whenever he eats anything too greasy
As for the GTG, that was so sweet of you to plan the Apple stuff! We're here until the 24th and have no plans next weekend if we want to try to reschedule the GTG
