Little Trip To The Hospital

September 28th, 2006

Well on Monday I took a trip to the hospital due to some chest pains similar to the ones I experienced when I had Myocarditis a couple of years ago. I was admitted, and some tests were run to find that the sac surrounding my heart was inflamed, they were unable to get an echo-cardiogram done at night so they told me to go home take some anti-inflamatories and come back the following day for my echo.

Well we couldn’t get an appointment the next day since echo was booked until they closed, however we did manage to get an appointment for Wednesday morning. I spend most of Tuesday in bed drugged and resting, and went for my echo Wednesday morning. As I expected everything seemed fine, and they told me to take it easy and continue taking my anti-inflamatories.

I feel better now, but still don’t feel 100% right, I still get shortness in breath, and have this weird feeling in my chest, so I’m just taking things slowly. I’ve been given a permanent cardiologist, which is fun, you know being 23 and already having a cardiologist, but what are you going to do anyway.

Anyway I’m doing better now, and I hope to be myself within the next couple of days, I really have to thank my girlfriend Emily for being there for me and staying with me when I was scared, and of course my parents for taking such great care of me.

Thanks to everyone who sent their best, It really did help. I can’t wait to be normal again
