Default Trip to the ER last night.

Susan took me to the ER last night. I called my PCP and he sent me there due to chest pain. I have delt with this off and on for years but they haven't been able to diagnose it.

We spent 5 hours in there and I made them get things done so Susan could get home and get some rest. My bloodwork and test was ready and the Dr. just didn't get to it. They said they were very busy, I know one of my friends was there and I am going to check on him today. Susan thinks he might have tried to kill himself but she didn't want to ask his family. They didn't see her. If it had been me I would have walked up and just asked. I'm not shy anymore. LOL

Anyway, they have decided I either have Gastritis or Mitral Valve Prolapse. I will be getting some test ran. As far as I know I am still having the surgery. I haven't talked to my PCP to see what he thinks but I want to go ahead with it. I guess I just have this attitude anything can happen anywhere so it doesn't matter where you are and what you are doing.

I read up on both this morning and I don't know which it might be that I am dealing with. I had the symptoms of both since they have a lot of the same symptoms.

They put me on Nitro and Lopressor. I had been put on Nitro years ago but I just forget I have it.

He thinks the stress of everything I am going through brought this back on. I liked this Dr. he reminded me so much of my PCP. He said he had been a PCP for 25 years before coming here to work in the ER. Very nice. He sat and talked to me and Susan about his family and me and Bill and how he feels like I should deal with our anniversary coming up.

I just get really frustrated that I have delt with this for over 7 years and the Drs. can't figure out for sure what it is.
