I'm too tired to explain it all .. but basically went with a squeezing, crushing chest pain Thurs night. I have heart problems and this pain was unusual.
Had to have a heart stress test while being severely nauseated. Thought they were going to kill me.
Decided it was my esophagus and stomach due to Sjogren's.

Hope you're feeling better real soon!
Posted by 2roads (Member # 4409) on :
So sorry you had this experience Tutu.
When you have a heart condition, you do have to keep that in the forefront and take fewer chances. You were right to go in.
My Mom had Sjogrens. I think back to her situation and attribute it all to Lyme.
Get some rest.
Big hugs Posted by map1131 (Member # 2022) on :
I've been gone from home since Friday morning and I come back to find you down and out?
Not acceptable at all dear. You must of been scared to go into dumb dumb territory.
Have you had endoscopy? Going in the other direction and down? Acid reflux or gerd sx?
I'd be using some healing freqs for esophagus.

Lymetoo, so sorry. I do hope you are doing better.
I have sjogren's so they say. Prayers for you and please keep us updated.
Posted by Dekrator48 (Member # 18239) on :
Lymetoo,
Just said a prayer for you.
Hope you are feeling better today.
Posted by map1131 (Member # 2022) on :
Lymetoo, I'm trying to call you and all I'm getting is funny busy signal....like maybe cell phone system is overloaded in Missouri? I hope you are okay? Tornados suck!!!!!!!!!!!
Pam
PS, Lord watch over your people and all their loved ones in Joplin, Missouri. Also Lord peak in on Tutu and let her know we're thinking of her.
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
Thanks gang.. I DO attribute my Sjogren's to LYME for sure. I'm sure that is what caused it.
Tornadoes usually miss us .. we've had a few twisters here, that's all. We are protected by the hills. Storms head toward us and dissipate. Praise the Lord!
That storm was really horrible. We drive through Joplin when we go home to TX. I heard that the Precious Moments Chapel area was also in danger. Not sure if it got hit or not.
...
Oh.. I had an upper GI two months ago.. found "nothing" .. hahaha .. Dr talked about checking for H. pylori but they couldn't do it until Monday... I said no way I'm hanging around here. Gotta go call my GI and see if he checked for that.
Posted by Tincup (Member # 5829) on :
You've been on my mind. The reports out of Missouri are horrible. My heart breaks for those families.
Good to know you are ok, as far as tornadoes go!
Now get better otherwise and maybe, just maybe, I will ask the boss to give you a raise here.
Hugs Tutu!
Posted by skies (Member # 28064) on :
So sorry you're having a hard time.. Hope you are feeling better soon!! Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
A raise!!! Can I get double what I get now???? Let's see, zero times zero is .....??? Zero??
Thank you guys. I'm better today, but my stomach is not really any better.
Posted by map1131 (Member # 2022) on :
Tutu, I just got back on line. I've called your cell # so many times. Thank goodness you're okay.
We had horrible storms come through in early hours this morning, so everyone says? I was dead to the world.
Pam
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
I sent you my other number in a PM. Call me, sister.

Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
Thank you so much. I would type out every single name if my hands would allow.
Posted by daisyrlb (Member # 15686) on :
Lymetoo, That was wise to go to the ER. Always better to be safe than sorry. You are in my prayers.
So glad you were safe from the tornadoes. Crazy weather.
Everyone shared such kind sentiments and chuckles, too. And you deserve them.
May you get a peaceful, healing night's sleep.
Posted by Robin123 (Member # 9197) on :
Good to hear you're better. Isn't that just like us, to think it's one thing and maybe it's another. Yeah, glad you weren't close to that tornado!
Posted by lymeladyinNY (Member # 10235) on :

Lymetoo - I have not been on much lately and just saw this, hope you are feeling better!!
So glad you are alright!!
Posted by Arkie-hinny (Member # 26546) on :
Recuperate Immediately!!!!!
Hang on......
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
Now if I could just get some real sleep. Been up most of the night with sciatica. Haven't had that in awhile.. at least not bad.
Have not slept well in weeks.
--I kinda thought when I went to the hospital it was my esophagus or stomach, but with A-fib and such a weird "new" pain, I couldn't take the chance. Plus my BP kept going up. It was 160/90 when I got there. My usual is 95/60!
Posted by apljack (Member # 14233) on :
Glad to see you're on the mend. I only just saw this, I rarely come to general support.
Heart pain, ER visit, tornadoes, what a challenging week for you. Hope by week's end, you're all back to normal.
Hugs.
