Suburban 550 28 #29 Posted October 14, 2010 First of all I would like to thank all of you for your prayers, e-mails, phone calls and well wishes. This problem developed awhile back and you always keep thinking it will go away on its own. My blood work came back with some really high numbers, high triglycerides, high cardio crp, high cholesterol, and high glucose level. I have encountered shortness of breath, chest pain, and extreme fatigue. I had a episode yesterday evening where the chest pains started again and I popped a nitro for relief and ended up with a terrible headache which I ended up takin' the day off of work. It was one of them headaches that felt like you were out drinkin' for a couple days. Talked with the doctors office today and they said the EKG looked pretty good with no signs of a previous heart attack. I'm scheduled for a stress test Monday morning and hopefully everything goes all right there. The only way I feel half way decent is laying down and resting. If there is one lesson I learned from this is don't wait til things get as bad as they did for me without seeking medical attention sooner. Thanks again everyone, you are all a great bunch of individuals that I'm glad to be associated with. :USA: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
