 praying for your son
Linda,
I was an EMT for 16 years plus I have been through the same ordeal. I was short of breath and had just kind of a heavy feeling in my chest. I had a cardiac stress test done and was told to go right to the heart hospital. They said I was days away from a major heart attack with a 99% blockage. Even though the cath test with the dye came back clear, ask his doctor to have a stress test done. My cousin had a clear dye cath. but had a heart attack a week later. I do not mean to scare you, but people are having heart problems younger and younger all the time. In these times of medical care, insist that the doctors get to the real cause of the chest heaviness. I've seen to many young people with these problems coming out of no where. Better safe and a pain in the doctors butt then sorry. I will pray for you and your son. Just be strong and insist on the best care. They are our children, no matter how old they are. God bless you all. |
