[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 604678, member: 1514"] I actually think I might have had a minor heart attack late yesterday afternoon. I had felt fine all day long and had run several errands that took me about 5 hours. When I got home I had to carry two fairly heavy bags into the house. Now they werent heavy heavy but I have a hard time carrying much. I carried in a bag with Chinese food for dinner that night that might have weighed about the same as a gallon of milk or slightly more. I also had a big bag from Family Dollar that was slightly lighter. As soon as I put all those things down on the counter in the kitchen I started feeling weird. Then I felt like I had pulled all the muscles across my chest and I got weak. I left everything in the kitchen and went into my bedroom and tried to crawl into my bed. I had got out a bag of peas to put on my chest. When I got into my bedroom Cory was laying in the big bed. I started sweating buckets. I was actually dripping. I asked Cory to look around the house for aspirin but he couldnt find any so I just took a lorcet. He called his father to see if he was close to home. He got home about half an hour into this episode and gave me aspirin he had bought. Eventually I started to feel better and was able to eat something and today I feel much better. I am still a bit weak and dont want to do anything. I refused to go to the hospital because I am afraid of that. I have always told my family that I will never go into the hospital willingly because of heart issues. I am afraid of invasive testing and I had one of those tests where they give you medication to speed your heart up and then put you in an xray type thing to watch the results. I had that back in 05 and it was awful. I wont ever go through that again. Who knows, maybe I did pull a muscle. I choose to believe that. *Dont tell me to go to the ER because I wont. I probably wouldnt have gone with the meningitis but I was in a coma...lol. [/QUOTE]
