Dh back in the hospital....

My day was unreal!

Dave(hubby) woke up at 6:00 this morning with chest pain....so I got up and I took him to the er....with his history and illnesses I knew not to take any chances....well they did an ekg, chest x-ray, and blood work....and he is looking fine....BUT with his history they wanted him in overnight...for 3 blood tests at 6 hour intervals....2 so far are normal...whew...then they want to do a drug induced stress test tomorrow...because of his back he can't do the treadmill one....so he is in the hospital....which is good...That was pretty scary....But all is looking good....and the doctors all reassured me, and him that we did the right thing going into the er....I am happy that so far all is well!

Well pretty tired was at the hospital from 7 this morning until 5 tonight....makes a long day!

Ruth, I know how scary this is for you. Dave is exactly where he needs to be. Since the tests so far are good, the rest of them most likely will be good, too. I'm keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers, and hope he's home soon.

HI Rj


What a day you have had my friend. Dave is where he needs to be right now and with the test going well so far I am betting that tomorrow things will go the right way.


Keep us posted girl and I sure hope you were able to get some rest tonight.


Love and (((HUGS)))
