bajanblue: Hi druidess

i was one of the lucky ones one bout of really bad palpitations and about 10 private summers over a three year period, but i was in a cardiologist's office 48 hours after the palpitations becausre in my book if the heart is asking for attention you give it immediately.


Hi, Bajan! Yep...I had a scare of heart palpitations and pain, numbness and pain down my left arm...drove myself to the hospital with my husband next to me...ended up on 23-hour heart monitor and getting a stress test. They never could tell me what was wrong...but they could tell me it wasn't a heart attack.

Don't follow my example...have someone else drive you. I'm a headstrong idiot at times. sigh doh

Right, I did that too, the hospital freaked out when they found out I drove myself to the hospital like that also.
My father did the same thing drove his self to the hospital, but he needed a quaddrupple bypass surgery. Now thats wild.
2 weeks later after his surgery he drove his self to the hospital again, only this time he passed away 15 min. after arriving to the hospital. doh uh oh

Kind of sounds like you have anxiety and some stress.

Sometimes when I'm anxious about something or too stressed out, I get numb in my arm or hands and I start to sweat (and I'm not doing anything physical at the moment when it happens).

Were you anxious about something? Have you been stressed out at work lately?

I just saw this, Alison!! Please go to the ER now. I have had three heart attacks and by-pass surgery. Get it checked out.

It sounds exactly what my first heart attack felt like except I had pain in my left arm!!hug
