Well I have been having chest pains since Friday evening. I am having ulcer issues--nothing new and I thought that was the problem. Apparently I looked grey at church and begain sweating with worse pain. 2 of our medical staff felt I was having a heart attack. The cardia enzymes showed no heart attack. After an hour of care they got my bp up to 117/66. He sent me home with vicodin--what for I don't know. He said he wanted to give me something else but couldn't because of my stomach. Anyway I am home with my swollen little ankles and bruise covered body waiting for vicodin to do something. Sherlock is like a parasite stuck to me. He won't let anyone other than Teaser near me. He bays at them. Thinking of calling to ask for a sub tomorrow.

SM, what can I say? Many hugs being sent. The vicodin is for pain. Could it be that you cracked a rib when you fell? The good news is that the cardiac enzymes were negative. Very important test. But if you continue to have the pain, and are no better, call your doctor tomorrow morning. By all means, call in for a sub to take your classes.

Called and I have a sub tomorrow. I hurt still but not as bad--saving a vicodin for bed time. Just made sure that my lesson plans were okay for a sub--I have a good sub, but still he isn't a teacher. It will all be okay. I will call my doctor in the morning. I have had ulcer issues all week--I think it is that causing pain. Possibly a little tweek in meds will help.
Thank you all--I'm to darn ornary to have anything happen--especially during the school year.

Hi SM... I'm still worried about your heart if your ankles are swollen. If the pain gets worse please call an ambulance. The signs of a heart attack are different for women than men. If anything feels like something is heavy on your chest or like there is constriction PLEASE get help immediately.

Again thank you all. Just had a call from my partner--she is the greatest teacher. I know she has been doing this for a long time, but she still wants what is best for the kids. It seems that she has never become jaded--I want to be like her when I grow up.
I will take a nap tomorrow. I would just like to know if this will be continuing--I need this to stop now.

SM - I hope you are feeling better soon. I have had ulcers and problems related to ulcers for 20+ years and almost every time I went to the ER, one of the first things they wanted to know was if I had a history of heart problems, which the answer was no, but they would still do EKG's and other tests to rule it out. It was frustrating to me, (not to mention expensive, because of no insurance) because I would have no chest pains, actually no pains at all and the doctors would insist on the EKG - I finally after many years would just refuse to let them do an EKG - they had always been negative and the doctors just couldn't accept the fact that I knew my symptoms better than them. I have been praying for you - ULCERS SUCK BIG TIME!!! Hang in there and get some rest - let the family wait on you instead of the other way around and I just want to let you know it does get better, but you need to get rid of the stresses that cause the situation - mine was my sons attitudes towards each other and the constant sibling rivalries that caused the constant bickering - when they finally grew up enough to move out,go to college and just to ignore each others digs and insults, it has been so much better for me. I know this is easier said than done, and that everyone handles things differently, and hope things settle down in your tummy soon.
