ER Visit
I drove myself to St. Luke's ER Monday morning. I have been having some chest pain for about a month now and over the weekend it got increasingly worse. EKG and chest x-ray came back normal. Doctor said I have something called Costochondritis (Tietze syndrome) which is a inflammation of the tissue in the chest that connects the ribs to the sternum. Doc said it can take up to six weeks for it to heal completely. I got a strong pain shot and a prescription and was sent on my way. Actually Jeff had to drive me home, I was not allowed to drive myself. I have to go and check in with my Primary Doctor in a few days and let her know what is going on. I also have a few other doctor appointments set up for next week. Yep, so I started off the week with a crazy weird bang!
