So Wednesday evening I came home from work feeling awful. Unnaturally tired, pain in chest and left arm. Bill took me to the ER, and I was in the hospital until this afternoon. After a lot of testing, I was sent home with instructions to take a baby aspiring a day and to use nitroglycerin under my tongue if I have pain. I go back to cardiology next Friday to report how I’m doing.
A nuclear stress test was done today and showed a possible problem. I may have a small blockage. So after I tell them Friday how I’ve done (I used nitro tonight), we will decide whether I need a catheterization. Or if I have a bad episode like the other night, I go straight to the ER and get that process going.
Good times.

Oh goodness I'm sorry. How scary. But sounds like you caught it at a good time. Before it was worse OR unable yo be treated. That's only positive. I hope if its a blockage, it'll be resolved easily.
This study was interesting and might be of some help for the future.
