My hubby has been having some chest pains at work for about the past month. He's the type that keeps stress in. He's been doing the jobs of two men and worried about bills. We thought it was anxiety and he would take a half a Zanax to work with him if he needed it. Saturday a neighbor rented a boom truck to cut down trees in his yard and ours that had damage from a tornado several years ago. My hubby was gonna cut down a smaller tree while he started topping the large trees. B. wasn't able to finish the small tree. His chest began hurting really bad. He sat down and we could all tell he was in distress. After about 20 minutes he got up to try again and had to stop. Our neighbor gave him a nytro. And then another 5 minutes later. He was feeling normal again, but we wouldn't let him continue at all. I took him to the Dr. yesterday and his EKG from 2 years ago and the one they did yesterday were slightly different. Today he gets to go see the Cardiologist. They are going to do a stress test today which may lead into a Cath test later in the week. They also did complete bloodwork.
I have been married to this guy for 24 years. We have went through alot together and he is my true soulmate. We are so scared about this. Our stress level is so high right now. We see ourselves as getting so old. Dealing with this, bill collectors and now he's off work for a week (no pay). I just needed to vent. It's just beginning to be too much. We just need a break, just some peace in our lives. No more drama.
