cardiac enzymes
Hi,
When nursing if someone had chest pain (and in Canada HD is #1 killer of women!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) we took Cardiac enzymes.....ck and trop1 every four hours x3!! That way you get a good look at what is going on. If you ever have chest pain go to ER immediatly and get 12 lead ecg and then ck and trop's......not sure if they are called the same is US......but when I went in with chest pain KILLER I thought I was dying and all was normal.....I was working at the time and my colleges sent me to the er to get checked out. I was working out and doing millitary presses.....and that was squishing brachial plexus....extra rib and all............ no heart issue thank GOD but still needs checked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ANY CHEST PAIN GO TO ER....GOT IT GUYS....DO I HAVE TO BE YA'LL'S NURSE....NOT THAT I MIND I NEED PATIENTS!!!!!!
love to all.....
victoria

Victoria
