Houston Hospital Weekend
By
Yes, I spent the week-end at the LBJ General Hospital in Houston Texas.
We had some chest pains that could not be explained. Being on the safe side, we went to the ER at LBJ Hospital. They performed hundreds of test including a stress test, x-rays, cat-scan, blood, liver, kidney and more.
I learned I don’t have a heart problem, I don’t have a lung problem and we are pretty sure I’m not pregnant.
What is wrong? While I was writing this post, the doctors came in and they don’t know either. It could be muscle, bone structure or a combination of the two. It might be a nerve problem but they don’t know.
What they do know is I am healthy as a horse. My sugar is great, cholesterol is good, blood pressure was perfect, blood counts were on the money and no warning signs of any type.
So today, they are letting me go back to work.
I’ll get in the truck and head east to get a load going to Kansas. We should be rolling by noon.

So sorry to hear about your experience with the chest pains. Sounds as if they gave you a pretty thorough going over though and a clean bill of health to boot.

So glad you are okay. Hope that if it is nerves or muscles that it goes away soon!
Have a great week.

Well, praise God! I was worried about you! If you hadn’t posted something or emailed me soon I was thinking about hitch hiking Southwest to check on you!
Hope you’re feeling better, and pain free. I’m praying for you, my friend.
Love and big, careful hugs,
Diane

Hate to hear about chest pains. With your family history it’s great to hear the old heart is good. Hope you get to feeling better. Slow down and smell the roses. You know you not a spring chicken anymore.
