Default Chest Pains, what a couple of days !

OK so Monday morning off to work, not been feeling too crackey recently and I do take medication for high blood pressure and have done for many a year, it's checked every 6 month and is always under control.

Suffered some serious chest pains around 9:15 am, through to my shoulder and up my neck. Similar to pains I had around ten year ago.

Straight to A&E where a very helpful young man promptly hooked me up to the ECG machine and took my blood pressure and said every thing is fine mate, just wait here to see the doctor.

Duly saw the doctor mid morning and had a chat, agreed it was best to be admitted and It appears that in the case of a suspected heart attack you have to take a blood test 12 hours later to confirm or rule out Heart attack.


Admitted to ward and second ECG around 12noon, again told all looks OK. blood test scheduled for 9pm.

8;30 pm nurse came to see me to say there was an abnormality they had just noticed in the ECG's, I was confined to bed, moved to directly opposite the nurses station and constantley connected to the ECG machine. Blood test taken at 9pm. On the ECG machine through the night.

Finally at 3pm this afternoon the head consultant came to see me to say there was NO abnormality with the ECG's there was NO evidence of a heart attack or any problem with my heart for that matter. All blood tests came back showing no problem. They are to refer me to my GP for further tests to try to establish the cause of the pain I had (Never found out 10 yr ago either)

So now I am back at home wondering just who the hell gave me the fright of my life, All the Head consultant can say is to assure me all the tests and results are perfectly normal and my heart is healthy and fine.

Stop complaining. It's the new NHS money saving procedures.

If they think you may have a heart problem they rule it out by giving you the fright of your life.

If you live they tell you to go home. No blood expensive blood tests and the TAX payer saves a few quid.


Hope you are well. I still owe you a few pints.. Don't want anything to happen to you until I repay my debts...



On the other hand..........
