Subject: [Net-Gold] Re: Apparently I've had a heart attack
You'll forgive me if my manners slip a little during this post but I am to
say the least a little pissed off.
I had chest pains at work today, and went to the ER like my doctor said.
They did another EKG, a cardio panel bloodwork, hooked me to a heart
monitor, etc. After a few hours they told me "You're very dehydrated. What
idiot told you you had a heart attack you need to never see him again?"
I tell him my doctors name
"Oh, uh, he's a nice guy very thorough I'd stay with him. Go ahead and
keep your appointment with the cardiologist."
I go see the Cardiologist
"This is it? This is what you're here for? You're fine, I won't bother
charging you for the visit since there's nothing wrong with you. Since
you're diabetic and overweight I'll do a stress test to make sure, but
you're okay right now."
I should probably mention I don't have insurance. So while I may be okay
for now unless the stress test indicates artery blockage, I'm probably
going to owe a few grand in medical bills.
