Scary Times

Ok since this is my journal of sorts I thought I better write down the happenings of the last two days. Before I begin I will let you all know that I am fine. Thursday night I was hanging out with the roomies and some friends...just after ten I started to lose feeling in my left arm and then I felt some intensely sharp pain in my chest. My roommates and friends were obviously worried-I wrote it off until it continued to persist. I received a blessing and we called our friend who is just finishing up her clinicals as a nursing student. She arrived shortly and took my blood pressure and pulse-it was 80 over 48 which is pretty low. The chest pain had subsided but my arm was still numb. I took some Motrin and decided to just wait it out (I know...I'm stubborn) promising that I would go to the Student Wellness Center...
So this morning I went into the wellness center met with a doctor and he took some vitals and listened to my heart and decided that I needed to go to the Emergency Room so I called a friend since I wasn't allowed to drive myself. I spent several hours getting blood drawn, having xrays, and an EKG.
All to find out that I am stressed (no brainer it' the end of the semester and I just got engaged), I have a pinched nerve in my shoulder, and some stomach acid has come up my esophagus into my lungs and area around my heart causing irritation. So I was given some prescriptions and told to stay in bed through today and take it easy the next few days.
I am so grateful to the friends who took care of me and took me where I needed to be and stayed with me. I am also incredibly grateful for an amazing fiance who drove down from Wyoming where he is working to make sure I was ok and to bring me flowers. So no worries I am doing well and feeling much better :)
