What a day! I woke up this morning with chest pain shortness of breath that was really bad
. AFter a couple of hours I could not stand the pain any more and had to go to the hospital. I'm still in Boston so I went to NEMC pretty good ER I guess.
The frustrating part I guess is that there is nothing that can be done traditionaly to end these episodes. So Dr. Maron said if the pain got bad enough that I still have to go to the ER to get pain meds. I was so hoping to be able to put an end to that. We are going to try some experimental stuff and I pray it helps. But nothing has yet so I'm not getting my hopes up.
I don't know what I'm going to do once school starts. When I have one of these episodes about the only thing that helps is morphine. It also makes me so sick that I don't know what is worse the neasea or chest pain. If I get a drug test during the nursing program I fear I will get kicked out because it will show up as opiates.
At this point I wish anyone had answers but it seems no one does. This is the one case where I don't like being different. I'm supposed to fly out tomorrow but I'm feeling so cruddy right now I don't know if I can handle it.
Sorry for the pity party but I'm feelin pretty down right now.
