Is it a heart attack or not? It used to be that, but I have no damage to my heart. Here's what happened.
Sat 2:00 a.m. severe pressure in chest, called 911. Waited 6 hours in E.R. to get back results.
Sat-results showed a slight enzyme increase which indicated a heart attack warning. Admitted into hospital.
Stayed in there to monitor condition for 4 days.
Wed-air lifted to Edmonton for heart cath. Had a medicated stint inserted, heart is good, no problems.
Sat-air lifted back to Fort Mac
Sunday-given a pass to go home to visit my girls, had to be back at the hospital at 10:00 p.m.
Monday-released.
Funny thing is I was on the psyc ward of the hospital. I teased my girls that they finally admitted me, but not in the cardiac unit! I'm doing better and hope to not have reservations about being alone here. I already had fears of being alone and something happening. Those fears came true. But I'm sure I brought that on to myself. I need to settle down and not be anxious.
A little less that 4 weeks, we will be going home for two weeks. I may not come back. J.K. I can't leave my husband here alone. I have to do this. I have to draw strength from God.
