What Are You Doing Right Now

Spent yesterday in the ER. Went through the night with chest pains. Visited an urgent care. They read my EKG and thought I was in a heart attack. Sent me to the hospital. Turned out fine, it's an esophageal thing and I'm totally healthy. But it was a long, scary day.

A bit. The esophageal spasm is known to be very hard to separate from a heart attack. But it's not so common to have an EKG and think that the combination confirms a heart attack.
That said, my father's doctors for years thought that my dad had a heart condition and it was really this. So in my family, it is starting to be a trend. He had to be hospitalized for a believed heart attack at the exact same age!

My boss spent two days in the hospital last weak because he had some numbness, etc on the left side. Numbs left side is like OMG heart attack to most people.
Bajillion tests later it was a pinched nerve. But now he knows his heart is healthy.

It's quite the great feeling getting all those tests and then being like "I'm in GREAT shape, lol" after thinking you might not make it through the night.

It was also great that the giant laundry list of risk factors that they asked about I was like "no, no, no, no, no...."

Mentally preparing to deal with another 25cm of heavy snow after work today. At least there's no commute to deal with for the whole work from home / COVID business.
