Heart Condition, February 2019

Today my new Primary Doctor Dr. Vaccaris called and said my echocardiogram was abnormal and the heart is not all functioning correctly and it shows I did have a heart attack and she wants me to me with a cardiologist.  So I have an appointment on Wednesday at 2 with a lady Dr. Alhama.

On the night of February 22, 2017, I was hot, and then chills and really feeling sick.  Yes, I did have a fever, first time in forever.  I was not sure I would make it through the night, I felt like my heart was giving out (overactive imagination I guess but my blood pressure was sky high and I had the worst, worst headache ever) and I went to the clinic as soon as it opened.  Probably for the first time in my life I did not even have makeup or hair combed, I felt that bad.  He gave me a prescription for UTI and Sinus Infection and I know I had tendonitis in the knees as well as backache and that headache which went on and on.  I think the pain pills are worse for you than the suffering so I did not take any, and got rid of meds as soon as able.  I spent about three weeks in bed or on the couch, seldom dressed, went nowhere and now I am working outside 2 hours a day to start to do the spring clean up.

I think the above incident is the night I had the heart attack, so that was two years ago.
