Hi all!! I know I havent been in here for a while.

Just to let you all know that I went to hospital last Monday nite. At first about 6 am I got up to go to bathroom then having a hard time breathing. Woke up my son to call 911 and the ambulance arrived to take me to the hospital. Later the doctor let me go and went home. Took a nap and then woke up to go to bathroom. Bang all over again. Told my son to go with me to the doctor office which is about 2 to 3 miles from my house. Went in to see the doctor then I blacked out. I woke up in the amblance and thinking oh no back to the hospital but this time it was at the different hospital. So when I got there the doctor found out that was my second effect. So he decided that I should stay at the hospital.

I stayed at the hospital for 5 days and I was put on oxygen and did lot of blood work. Also my heart rate went up due to having stress while trying to breath. I do have a heart condition and had a 2 open heart surgery. so the doctor think I had a mild heart condition which I dont think so. The Dr. called my heart doctor and he said it may due to stress and will need a test so I will call him on monday to set up an appt. I have a regular doctor appt on Dec 18 for routine checkup.

Now I am home resting doing well and going easy. I cant drive for 5 days :( but at least I am still here. My son was worry sick about me and he had to stay at his stepmom's house while I am in the hospital. His stepmom called his school and they send him his school work to the house so he can catch up. He is coming home tmw and I cant wait to see him. I missed himm so much.
