What a start to the week.

Ive been really unwell.the last three weeks with my copd and a bad chest infection.
Couldnt understand why been in so much pain in arms and chest, back, mouth neck and my jaw.

Found out this morning as pain so bad wanted to see doc if i could make it there.
Got outside house. Collapsed. Neighbour eventually found me. Dailed 999.
Good job they did as i was having heart attack. Pain unbelievable till they went through my artery in my wrist to place a spring type thing in artery by heart which was blocked. Kettering hospital were brilliant.
Im on ward at moment and because of copd bad chest infection not sure how long i will be here. Fantastic docs and nurses though.

MC, sounds as if you had a stent put in. Luckily your neighbor found you. Hospital right now is the best place for you to be.

Yes that's the word i couldn't remember Stent. The pain relief once it was done was amazing. At the time i just wanted to die to end the terrible pain i was in.

Its weird how they can open a artery in my wrist to push pipe over to my heart. And with just local anaesthetic
