hi everyone!!! i'm back :)
i got some splainin' to do...lol.
in the life that is only mine, always hoppin, always drama (or so it seems) i was trying to stay out of the ER yesterday and have my son's birthday party all at the same time.
the hang over was not too bad. BUT i was having squeezing pains in my upper arms and across my chest. so bad was the pain that it kept waking me up from my deep sleep, i was whimpering from the pain (in my sleep), and when i woke up and tried to do some of my errands and chores the pain stayed with me. i was starting to think i was a goner. seriously. i thought it was heart related. i called my doc and they had no docs in yesterday afternoon or at all today because of the holiday. so i would have to go to the ER if i wanted to be seen. rather than fork out my $1,000 insurance deductible i decided to rest on the couch and see if the pain let up. THANK GOD the pain went away. poof gone. i proceeded to have the previously scheduled birthday party.
the thing that worries me...if i had pulled a muscle or something the pain wouldn't just disappear like that. i'm taking that episode as a warning to me that i need to get my ass in for a regular physical.
qp - thanks...i am feeling ok, but still going to get in to a doc.
pc - i wish i could but they involve other people whom i did not receive permission from to post on the internet :)
wish - thank you, i appreciate you kicking me in the seat of the pants, so to speak. i will be calling the doc on monday morning, i promise. i agree, it's nothing to fool around with. i even cancelled an out of town trip for today, wanted to hang close to home, i'd hate to be 2 hours away and start having pains again. i've been resting as much as possible this weekend too.
