not to fear monger, but i have a fam friend who went to the hospital because he thought he was having a heart attack, they cleared him said it was just really bad heartburn or something and sent him home.
he died of a heartattack that night in his sleep. he was a big boy, smoker, unhealthy eater etc the whole bit. definitely not doing his part. but the fact that he went to the hospital that very evening and got cleared is super scary. think it was north york general.
e/ story is like 3rd hand, not 100% sure what they said it was when they sent home. But they dismissed it as something super minor.
Ya never thought i had heart attack symptoms but sometimes I feel as if I have an irregular heartbeat. I can feel my heart beat in my chest for 2-3 seconds and doesn’t feel “right” hard to explain.
I mention this to my GP and he goes on a rant on how sometimes if the body is relaxing you can feel the heartbeat and it’s a normal thing. Regardless he still sent me for blood work and and ecg. But the ecg is only a 5-10 minute hookup and during that time I didnt feel it like i usually so. I need one of them heart monitors that I can wear for a day or two. Then I bet they’d see some results.
I’m more afraid of melanoma to be honest. Runs in my family and have had 3 family members who have had it. I’m scheduled to see the specialist in may. Only after waiting since July for the appointment
