A nurse has heart attack and describes what she felt like when having one

I am an ER nurse and this is the best description of this event that I have ever heard. 

 FEMALE HEART ATTACKS 

 I was aware that female heart attacks are different, but this is description is so incredibly visceral that I feel like I have an entire new understanding of what it feels like to be living the symptoms on the inside. Women rarely have the same dramatic symptoms that men have… you know, the sudden stabbing pain in the chest, the cold sweat, grabbing the chest & dropping to the floor the we see in movies. Here is the story of one woman’s experience with a heart attack: 

 "I had a heart attack at about 10:30 PM with NO prior exertion, NO prior emotional trauma that one would suspect might have brought it on. I was sitting all snugly & warm on a cold evening, with my purring cat in my lap, reading an interesting story my friend had sent me, and actually thinking, ‘A-A-h, this is the life, all cozy and warm in my soft, cushy Lazy Boy with my feet propped up. A moment later, I felt that awful sensation of indigestion, when you’ve been in a hurry and grabbed a bite of sandwich and washed it down with a dash of water, and that hurried bite seems to feel like you’ve swallowed a golf ball going down the esophagus in slow motion and it is most uncomfortable. You realize you shouldn’t have gulped it down so fast and needed to chew it more thoroughly and this time drink a glass of water to hasten its progress down to the stomach. This was my initial sensation–the only trouble was that I hadn’t taken a bite of anything since about 5:00 p.m. 

After it seemed to subside, the next sensation was like little squeezing motions that seemed to be racing up my SPINE (hind-sight, it was probably my aorta spasms), gaining speed as they continued racing up and under my sternum (breast bone, where one presses rhythmically when administering CPR). This fascinating process continued on into my throat and branched out into both jaws. ‘AHA!! NOW I stopped puzzling about what was happening – we all have read and/or heard about pain in the jaws being one of the signals of an MI happening, haven’t we? I said aloud to myself and the cat, Dear God, I think I’m having a heart attack! I lowered the foot rest dumping the cat from my lap, started to take a step and fell on the floor instead. I thought to myself, If this is a heart attack, I shouldn’t be walking into the next room where the phone is or anywhere else… but, on the other hand, if I don’t, nobody will know that I need help, and if I wait any longer I may not be able to get up in a moment. 

I pulled myself up with the arms of the chair, walked slowly into the next room and dialed the Paramedics… I told her I thought I was having a heart attack due to the pressure building under the sternum and radiating into my jaws. I didn’t feel hysterical or afraid, just stating the facts. She said she was sending the Paramedics over immediately, asked if the front door was near to me, and if so, to un-bolt the door and then lie down on the floor where they could see me when they came in. I unlocked the door and then laid down on the floor as instructed and lost consciousness, as I don’t remember the medics coming in, their examination, lifting me onto a gurney or getting me into their ambulance, or hearing the call they made to St. Jude ER on the way, but I did briefly awaken when we arrived and saw that the radiologist was already there in his surgical blues and cap, helping the medics pull my stretcher out of the ambulance. He was bending over me asking questions (probably something like ‘Have you taken any medications?’) but I couldn’t make my mind interpret what he was saying, or form an answer, and nodded off again, not waking up until the Cardiologist and partner had already threaded the teeny angiogram balloon up my femoral artery into the aorta and into my heart where they installed 2 side by side stints to hold open my right coronary artery. 

I know it sounds like all my thinking and actions at home must have taken at least 20-30 minutes before calling the paramedics, but actually it took perhaps 4-5 minutes before the call, and both the fire station and St Jude are only minutes away from my home, and my Cardiologist was already to go to the OR in his scrubs and get going on restarting my heart (which had stopped somewhere between my arrival and the procedure) and installing the stents. Why have I written all of this to you with so much detail? Because I want all of you who are so important in my life to know what I learned first hand. 

1. Be aware that something very different is happening in your body, not the usual men’s symptoms but inexplicable things happening (until my sternum and jaws got into the act). It is said that many more women than men die of their first (and last) MI because they didn’t know they were having one and commonly mistake it as indigestion, take some Maalox or other anti-heartburn preparation and go to bed, hoping they’ll feel better in the morning when they wake up… which doesn’t happen. My female friends, your symptoms might not be exactly like mine, so I advise you to call the Paramedics if ANYTHING is unpleasantly happening that you’ve not felt before. It is better to have a ‘false alarm’ visitation than to risk your life guessing what it might be! 2. Note that I said ‘Call the Paramedics.’ And if you can take an aspirin. Ladies, TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE! Do NOT try to drive yourself to the ER - you are a hazard to others on the road. Do NOT have your panicked husband who will be speeding and looking anxiously at what’s happening with you instead of the road. Do NOT call your doctor – he doesn’t know where you live and if it’s at night you won’t reach him anyway, and if it’s daytime, his assistants (or answering service) will tell you to call the Paramedics. He doesn’t carry the equipment in his car that you need to be saved! The Paramedics do, principally OXYGEN that you need ASAP. Your Dr. will be notified later. 3. Don’t assume it couldn’t be a heart attack because you have a normal cholesterol count. Research has discovered that a cholesterol elevated reading is rarely the cause of an MI (unless it’s unbelievably high and/or accompanied by high blood pressure). MIs are usually caused by long-term stress and inflammation in the body, which dumps all sorts of deadly hormones into your system to sludge things up in there. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let’s be careful and be aware. The more we know the better chance we could survive to tell the tale.“

Reblog, repost, Facebook, tweet, pin, email, morse code, fucking carrier pigeon this to save a life! I wish I knew who the author was. I’m definitely not the OP, actually think it might be an old chain email or even letter from back in the day. The version I saw floating around Facebook ended with “my cardiologist says mail this to 10 friends, maybe you’ll save one!” And knew this was way too interesting not to pass on.

You accepting any Shepley OTP questions?

Why, yes indeed I am. Bring it on!

Who made the first move?

Ashley. Initially because of Alliance regulations against fraternization and her family lineage stemming from the actions of her grandfather General Williams during the First Contact War, Ash wasn’t sure. But once she spent more time with Shepard, she felt that after being sidelined by Alliance High Command for so long throughout her military career, Ash knew for sure what she actually wanted. She knows a good thing when she sees it.

Who said ‘I love you’ first?

Shepard. He takes a more philosophical approach when it comes to love and relationships—ensuring that his words come out right and making them strike at Ashley’s very core. “When I first met you back on Eden Prime, I didn’t know my life would change. Maybe I was scared to admit that I’d found something I had been looking for my whole life.” It works, and it makes Ash’s heart melt and brings a warm smile to her face.

How often they fight?

They have some disagreements, but it’s nothing serious. Ashley’s known for being tough and aggressive, whereas Shepard is more patient and calm. If it does end up becoming heated and confrontational, they’re quite stubborn to the point that neither of them back down and need time to cool down. Regardless, they both apologize to each other and make up.

Whose big spoon/little spoon?

Shepard’s primarily the big spoon, and not simply because he’s the taller one (6′2″ compared to her 5′9¼”) where as Ashley’s used to being the little spoon. She doesn’t mind, though, since the feeling of Shepard’s muscular arms wrapped around her holding her close makes her feel comfortable after a long, stressful mission.

What their nicknames are for each other?

“Skipper” is Ashley’s playful nickname for Shepard as a way of expressing her affection for him. Shepard technically doesn’t have a nickname for Ash, other than “babe” (if mostly used for teasing or other intimate purposes), “Chief” or “LC”. He did call her “Princess” once at the Silver Coast Casino, but all that earned him was a long, death stare and a punch to the arm.

Whose the better cook?

Shepard is hands down the better cook. Ashley tries her best to learn how, but all she did was accidentally filling the kitchen with smoke and almost burned the house down. But Ash really does love watching Shepard cook and prefers his homemade cooking since it mostly reminds her of her father cooking something on the grill.

Their song?

Tough one, but I probably think “Don’t Ever Let It End” by Nickelback would fit the criteria for these two since both Shepard and Ashley feel as if their relationship was a dream come true and value it so much. And if it’s a dream, they don’t ever want to wake up.

Who remembers their anniversaries?

Both of them.

Their favorite thing to do together (besides sex)?

It’s either sparring, watching a few marathon vids or spending quality time together around the Presidium Commons. If it’s sparring, they poke fun at each other, have a few competitions or if it’s just to release their pent up frustrations. It often gets them… “excited”. If it’s movie night, they spend their time with Ash’s mother and sisters. If it’s spending time together on a date around the Presidium, they’ll pick out a spot near the lake and lose themselves around the peaceful landscape with Ash leaning her head on Shepard’s shoulder and holding his hand.

Who ‘wears the pants’ in the relationship?

Ashley likes to say she does, whilst others mostly believe that Shepard is the one actually in charge. Regardless, they both work it out together. “It’s like war: you make it work or die trying.”

How they would get engaged?

Shepard takes Ashley someplace nice, warm and welcome, not to mention private so as to get away from the attention of media outlets. Somewhere like a grass hill plains underneath some cherry blossom trees overlooking the cities below. Ash enjoys the scenery, but when Shepard asks her to close her eyes, she begins to get suspicious yet goes along with it. When she’s told to open her eyes, Ash is stunned beyond belief: she sees a ring laid bare before her, with only the words “Will you marry me?” breaking the silence. She struggles to swallow the lump in her throat and says “yes” as the ring is slipped onto her finger. Ash gives Shepard a big hug, smiling happily before kissing her fiancé.

What their wedding would be like?

While Shepard is agnostic and has no preference, Ashley is quite a religious woman and wants a traditional Christian wedding ceremony. They invite all of their crew, friends and family to one of the nicest churches on the Citadel or on Ash’s homeworld of Amaterasu. She wears a simple white wedding dress with a veil pulled back, her long hair had been done up, and for the first time had been wearing lipstick.Shepard wore a black tuxedo, white collared dress shirt, black tie and matching pair of black dress shoes. Garrus is Shepard’s best man and Ash’s sister Sarah is the maid of honor. When they kiss everyone cheers, and when the party starts Grunt and Wrex almost get into a lot of trouble. But it’s fun and everything they hoped for.

How many kids they’ll have?

It doesn’t matter how many, but I can see them having four kids since Ashley comes from a large family herself.

I’ve got time for a few more Q&As if you wanna send me some before final exams start.
