Topic: RE: Heart attack?!?! I went to the ER for heart burn!
I had a heart attack 8 years ago pre WLS.  About a year ago I have great pain in my chest.  I go to the ER thinking it could be a heart attack...It ended up acid reflux.  2 weeks ago I have the same feeling...since I had coffee and was burping like crazy.  But my pulse was in the low 40's...46 to as low as 43.  I go into the ER and they say I had a second heart attack.  Don't fool around if your not sure.  Brian in Turlock, CA.

I am SO happy for you!!!!!!!!!! You're very fortunate to have good insurance. Mine wouldn't pay, so I was self-pay. Fortunately, I have a supportive family who understood my health and helped my financially. You're on your way!!!!!!!! ((hugs))

Hope you're feeling better, Jenn. I had a similar thing happen to me. It happened during the night a couple years back. I had never been sick, so I had no idea what was happening to me. The anxiety also took over thinking it might be something really serious and it made things even worse! Hubby took me to the ER and after they did a barrage of tests, they couldn't find anything wrong either and figured it must have been indigestion! Silly, huh?! Still not absolutely sure what it was, but we did discover that I had a large hiatal hernia during my pre-op testing, so we're all convinced now that that was what it was. (Also did EkG and stress test prior to Sx and all is good with the heart! Good to know!)

Scary!!!!!!!!!! So glad you're ok!!! ((hugs))
