Success after IF

I. Am. Furious.

Today is my Dad's memorial service.  I wake to a husband who is having one of his "attacks".  Chest pain (not heart related...ER twice has ruled that out), shortness of breath because of said chest pain, numb hands and feet because of said shortness of breath.  He refuses to go the ER and pay a $200 co-pay plus a bunch of other chit that ends up on the bill. 

It is now too late for me to take him to the ER.  I leave for the memorial in 2 hours.  So it looks like I have to go alone.  :(  I'm mad at him for not going to the doctor after his endoscopy showed a perfect digestive tract.  He said "I feel better.  Let's just see if it comes back."

Well yeah, it did.  And now you're missing Dad's memorial and sending me alone.  I'm furious with him and even more sad than I was.

  • I am so sorry. I would be furious too. It is awful you have to go to your dad's memorial alone : ( I wish I could give you hugs in person.

  • I'm sorry.  Could this be anxiety related?  Maybe the stress of the day triggered it?  Either way, I'm sorry you have to go alone.

  • This absolutely stinks.  And I think LisaMarisa could be onto something with the anxiety related thought.  Sounds like a panic attack to me.  Hang in there. Thinking of you today.

  • I am so, so sorry you have to deal with so much at once. Hopefully this will be a wake up call for your DH that he needs to take care of himself, if not for him then for his family who needs him. Many hugs to you and your family today!!

  • Is it a panic attack? With all that is going on, and the symptoms you describe it could possibly account for how your H is feeling. Panic attacks can mirror the symptoms of a heart attack.

    I am sorry you are going through all this.

    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
    After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
    My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

  • I'm sorry. That sucks, a lot. I'm so sorry that DH won't be with you on such a sad day. I'd be mad (and sad) too. ((hugs))

  • I am so sorry.  It really sucks that this is another thing to deal with today. I will be thinking of you today. 
    Nothing to see here....
  • Oh honey! That's awful! Can he take some malox, some aspirin & buck up for a couple hours? I would be shattered.

    Sean had a similar attack last year & I called 911. They gave him something to relax his digestive track after ruling out a heart attack & it worked wonders. Dr said to try mallox next time...

    Big hugs. We are all there with you in spirit today.

  • I am so sorry I would be furious too.

    As for his symptoms they are a lot like what my mom has, and hers is a sodium inbalance, not sure if they rulled that out yet or not but something to bring up if they haven't.

  • I'm so sorry, Em.  I agree with pp that I'm wondering if it is anxiety related, not that it makes the day any easier to bear.  (((HUGS)))
