I went to the hosptial for three days and they did all sorts of tests and I never got to see a doctor. Only nurses? Tell me, does anyone else find that odd? I'm not saying the nurses weren't great and everything, but I would have preferred to see a doctor. Especially, since they thought it might be my heart. The nurses all decided that it's probably an ulcer in my esphogus and will have to be treated. I have no idea, since I missed that day at med school. :) They woke me up every hour and a half every night during the night because my blood pressure got too low. They had no idea what that was from. Again, I would have like a guess from a doctor. Call me silly. I'm glad it's not my heart. Thank goodness, but hubby wasn't happy with their diagnosis at all. He believes it's something worse. LOL He's a worry wart. They told me today to see my Primary Care Physican. I guess I'll have to do that. Most tests, oh happy day. Anyhow, I got home and the dogs acted like I was gone for a month. They laid on the floor in the office watching me like a hawk. LOL They're so funny. :) Dakota is the brown one and Lily is the chalk colored one. I hope everyone else is doing better than I was. LOL

Update: I'm having a ECG tomorrow sometime. I Have to call when I get up. My doctor wasn't happy with the diagnosis or the care. He advised me to never go to that hospital again. (LIke I would.) I'll keep everyone posted.

No, I didn't see that. I hope it turns out okay. I'd still want an echo and an 24 hour monitoring. The dropping of pressure while you're sleeping concerns me. Ulcers don't really cause that.

Good luck with it.

I have to go next week, like MOnday or Tuesday to discuss what we're doing next. So, I will keep you posted.
