A place for random thoughts....

Thanks. Still don't know anything because there was a mix-up with the appointment and I get to wait another week for the tests. That's good news in itself to me because the dr. isn't in that much of a hurry. Most likely was stress-related and nothing serious. Feeling much better today, and DH isn't freaking out anymore. He's such a worrier!

 

Don't worry, I Just had mine done last month (chest pain coupled with a few other issues) and now they think it was primarily indigestion because the testing came back and they told me everything looked great.

Personally I never expected to live to see 60, now I am kicking myself for not putting more into the Retirement account. :mrgreen:

 

Maybe it's just anxiety. Are you stressed over anything? When my anxiety attacks started many years ago I would get chest pains so bad that I was convinced that it was the "big one". I literally left work and drove myself to the doctor's office several times. That in itself gave me more anxiety!

Good luck, hope all turns out well. Think positive :grouphug:

 

You just needed to poot.

 

You could ask my seat mate on the plane last night, I try to keep them silent, but I usually don't hold back! 8)

 

I can smell a lie like a fart in a car. (Know what movie that's from?)

 

Aww, a man after my own heart

 

Which one?

 

I can imagine!
Let me know if you need me to do anything.

 

Thanks Hught michelle and HG. I'm really not worrying too much today. I'm hoping for the indigestion, need to poot diagnosis! LOL! Stress? Lets see...I just moved my dad down here, trying to find a job and place to live for my suddenly single sis, non-stop company all summer and I can't say no. Ever. Yep.

 

Well, I'm no doctor but it really does sound like anxiety to me. If it happens again try to get in a room by yourself and lay down and concentrate on your breathing. I've always been told to pretend there is a book on your stomach and your goal is to move the book up and down with your breathing. (I hope that makes sense).

You might want to see if your doc will introduce you to my little friend, Xanax. :lol:

 

I'll definitely try that exercise. My dr. asked me if I felt like I needed anything yesterday, and I said no. Probably should have taken the script so I'd have it just in case. I will if it happens again.

 

Just remember this . . . no one has ever died from an anxiety attack. It IS just a scary feeling and it WILL go away. Don't be afraid to take meds for it. If it were not for medicine I would still not be able to eat in a restaurant, go to the grocery store or go shopping. Several years ago anxiety was running my life. I finally got fed up with it and tried several meds until we found the one that works best for me. I still have occasional attacks but when I do I just "say hello to my little friend".

For some weird reason this time of year is always worse for me than others. I guess it's the change of weather and the holiday stresses?

 

Pump Up the Volume with Christian Slater. It's old (came out in 1990 I think) I was very much in love with him after I watched this movie. :drool:

 

DH??? Is that you??? :jester: :lol: :lol: :lol: That's his answer for everything too. 8)

 

Thats in manhood manual 101.... :twisted::twisted::twisted:

 

Can't hurt, might help! 8)

 

My husband would say that's my answer to everything. :lol:

 

Oh, such a wise squirrel you are :mrgreen:

 

is glad the day is over!! hope tomorrow flies by
