Hi all I was at work today and I all of a sudden felt my heart going really fast like palpitations. I found it hard to talk and I was also short of breath and very dizzy couldn't concentrate on anything. I was told to go sit out back for a while which I did and I went very pale and white. I didn't faint or anything But I didn't feel well at all very bad chest pain and Just not well at all. I did call my Local cardiologist Today and they said just keep monitoring things and if I get worse go to the er. For the first time last night I had problems breathing and had to prop my head up on many pillows. I didn't sleep very much last night nonetheless. How frustrating.
I went to Brigham and women's to my special cardiologist last week for a stress test and to check on things. I have had chest pain for a while now and he told me some difficult news. I am just praying for the best. He told me I have to hope for medical advancement and technology but that someday I may have to have a heart transplant
. I am hoping not. I have 3 family members that have had transplants including my half brother, my dad and my cousin. My cousin passed away after the procedure. I just got my icd last year june 17 2003 and It has been an aid and help. I wish I was able to attend the hcm conference this year to learn more about it Because I was born with it but I can't due to work. Thanks for all your input and this site. God bless everyone
