This Was Not Supposed to Happen! by findingyourfire
Most people who know me will tell you I am a pretty healthy person. I do indulge in my share of chocolate chip cookies and some Diet Coke now and then but for the most part, I have always been in great health.
A week later, I was struggling to go upstairs and even walk across a parking lot. The appointment was made with a cardiologist but was several months out. There was life to be done and so I followed up with a different physician in the practice I had scheduled several months out the day after the E.R. visit and he prescribed a Beta Blocker and scheduled some tests to be done about 10–14 days out.
Let me tell you that looking fine, being able to work and go about your daily business just feeling very stressed walking up a flight of stairs after a normal EKG and chest Xray makes one think twice about thinking they know better and requesting a test no one else suggested.My friend insisted I get to an E.R. again and request the test. I resisted initially, sat in the parking lot feeling foolish and called the E.R and asked if someone could just walk in and request the test.So, I relented.
In fact, I have no red flags for DVT’s. I don’t smoke, have neither high blood pressure or high cholesterol, had no traumatic injuries and had never been in the hospital except to have my babies.But it did. After speaking with the pulmonologist, it was suggested that some family history may be indicative of a genetic blood mutation and that will get tested sometime soon.
