A scare for me!!

  I turned 48 on Sunday nite- went to bed and had terrible pressure in my chest!  I sat up most of the nite. At 6:45 am , Byron took me to the ER. I thought I was having a heart attack. I was admitted and had 5 EKGs, heart ultrasound, stress test, and wore a heart monitor for 24 hours. All heart tests came back normal so they are thinking it was acid reflux. I was relieved it was not my heart! So now, I hope it doesn't return.  It is so cold in ND! -30 air temp.  -50 windchill- brrrrr!  HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Panic attacks mimic heart attack, do you have any anxiety issues or history? It feels horrible, short of breath, sharp pain.
I\'m glad some people can live thru those temperatures, I\'m not one of them. stay warm!

Hey Rynette , Glad that it wasn\'t the pump !! That had to be an awful feeling . Acid reflux isn\'t much fun either . If you get that alot you might think about asking your Doctor about Barrets Syndrome , ( scarring of the Esophgus ) Spelling ? Which can lead to other problems
Hope you guys can stay warm there . I can\'t imagine what -50 feels like !!
