    Best wishes sent from here. 
    Medicine has come a long way, it ain't what is used to be.
    I hope they can diagnose and treat what ever it is.
    And he goes home as sassy as ever.

    Prayers from here, Mr. P.  
    Will you be heading to Tacoma?

    Not at this time. I wouldn't be allowed in the hospital anyway.

    I talked with him briefly last evening and he is in good spirits. The pain is low, maybe a 1 to 2 at this point. He said the worst it got was a 5-6 in the early morning hours yesterday. It woke him up at 1:30am and wouldn't let him sleep so he finally got up at 3:30 and went into his office to work. My step mom, apparently, urged the visit when the pain was persistent.

    I've been in the hospital 4 times for chest pains. Each time they ran a bunch of tests, but could never come up with a cause. They prescribed some nitroglycerin to take when they hit, and that will almost always stop the pain. doesn't stop the worry though.

    I went through a similar experience where the docs couldn't find anything wrong.  Went from normal of 110/70 BP to chest pains and BP of 160/110 overnight in my mid 40's.  All kinds of tests that couldn't find what was causing the issue.  I was placed on two BP meds and daily nitro tablet to keep heart rate/chest pain and BP under control.  Supervisor got a new job, left the state.  All numbers returned to normal and no more meds.   Was taken off meds when I went to doc because everything was dropping too low on meds.  We determined it was stress related.  

    Mentally, I didn't think I was stressing.  Supervisor wasn't harassing me.  She was putting me in an awkward position with other co-workers, sharing TMI, asking me to spy on them (I wouldn't) and having me help her correct her mistakes.   Sometimes we are stressed and our body reacts when our mind doesn't.

    Update: they found an artery that was 100% blocked and another that was 80%. They have put in two stents and will keep him overnight. Thank you for your continued prayers and shared experiences. You guys and gals are such a blessing.
