It is Friday afternoon (or early evening for EDT folks). Time to bounce!
:bounce::bounce:

I went to the ER yesterday with crushing chest pains. Normally I would not have gone in, but I read Peggy's women and heart disease thread, and thought I had better be sure.

I did not have a heart attack.

:bounce::bounce:

Somehow, I sprained the muscles of my chest wall. I have no clue how it happened, because the pain did not happen while I did it. The pain started when I was watching my daughter at her swimming lesson yesterday. After the lesson was over, I drove home, and asked my husband to drive me to the ER.

Double reasons for bouncing them, then!

I'm so glad you're OK, sweetie...

And that my thread contributed was just the fucking icing on the cake!

Yaaaaaaaaaay!

And....I hope you're feeling much less pain today!:hug:

4. Dilaudid is a many splendored thing.
They hit me with the IV dilaudid about 1/2 hour before I left.

Pain was gone almost immediately.

I have a little pain today, but nothing like yesterday afternoon.

3. It was probably caused by bouncing them.
I bet it was. My MIL sprained hers when she tried to pick up one of their dogs one day.

12. Yes
But instead of getting that filled, I just take four of the 200 mg Motrin.

Try a cool damp washcloth on the back of your neck at the base of your skull. It can help. :hug:
