Update on George
Thank you all so very much for your prayers, good thoughts, and positive vibes. Whatever you did, it worked! We're home. No idea what the problem is/was. The cardiologist said the stress test came back normal. He explained, as we already knew, that even with a normal stress test, it does not rule out the possibility of blockages. All it means is that the heart is getting the flow it needs. So, we're still at square one. He needs to make a follow-up appt with the cardiologist.
The doctor did mention that he can tell how well George takes care of himself. He is one in a million in that he will seek care if he feels badly. This comes from both his parents dying very young of cancer. Although I did hear him tell the ER nurse that he had been having pain and shortness of breath for two - three days. Wait until he's feeling better, he's in for a real butt chewing!
I am so not use to being on this side of the hospital bed! In 37 years, I've been to the ER or hospital at least 15 times. Now I know how he felt all those times.
We had both cars at the hosp., he insisted he was well enough to drive himself home. Now, he wants to go to the Hornets game in a few minutes. I don't think it's a good idea, but I'm not about to argue with him just yet! Honestly, I need a nap and will probably fall asleep at the game.
Thanks again for all the support. My OFF family means the world to me.

He's not doing anything different now. Not taking any medications.
Hope you had a good time at the game.

oh Debbie! What an awful scare! Im so happy to hear that George is much better. I didnt know because once again, my phone service was down....
We has something similar a few years back...it turned out to be some kind of virus around JBs heart, they said..but I was amazed that he actually asked Derek to call me to come home...and take him to emerg.
Now you take care of YOURSELF too *hugs*

I am so glad that things worked out well and you can now just take a deep breath and continue to breathe. You called on your warriors and we answered. But then again I must admit that God had something to do with it too. : )
Give yourself and George a big hug from us.
