Dh called me yesterday. He was driving himself to the hospital with heart attack sypmtoms. He told me he was under alot of stress, anxiety, was taking aspirin, etc. blah blah blah.
Then he starts telling me how much money he made this week, he hasn't paid my mortgage yet. I told him we will talk about money later. Relax and get yourself to the hospital to be check out. Oh and that if he dies, have his gf call me. We both chuckled at that one! I was serious lol
He called later. He was being admitted, on nitrogleserine (sp) and something else for pain. He had an abnormal ekg many years ago so the base line of his tests may be off. I reminded him of this and he said he forgot to tell the drs that fact.
He told me he is having a stress test done this am and he said he would call me afterwards.
I told him maybe the Levitra you've been taking is having an affect on your heart. I chuckled at that one.
Then I start thinking maybe he is pulling a stunt. That he doesn't want to pay me or take the kids this weekend....so I called his hospital and he was admitted.
I know bad karma!
He wanted his new life. Hopefully for his sake he'll be around to be in it.

Sounds as if his "new life" is much more than he was expecting. LOL! Stress?! Aww, poor baby. {{{Annie}}}

Please forgive me if this sounds cold.....when you play, you pay !!

Annie, for your children's sake, I hope he gets better and when he does he'll realize what matters most!!

((Annie)) you've got to be having mixed emotions. Hope he's ok for the kid's sake.

Forgive me as well, I am not the type of person to wish negative things on another, but he has some seriously bad Karma, and obviously the stress of what he's done the last couple of years is affecting his health.

I'm sorry Annie, this is something you didn't need added to your list of worries. I hope he has life insurance with you or the kids as beneficiaries, *in case* something happens to him?

Ditto Karen on the life insurance. Ditto Heidi, in that I hope for the sake of your kids that he will be okay. Also, when he called, you had to have so many mixed emotions. I'm surprised he called you after what's happened. Where was gf I wonder?

I'm sorry this happened. I hope his health is fine and that it makes him a nicer person.

He's alive and well. Just an anxiety attack. We'll
have to wait and see if this episode will make him a better person. Gf wasn't around when he talked to me because he was being nice.

Ditto Deanna - you have to wonder *why* he called YOU?! I suspect this will not be the end of his *anxiety*......he must be filled with guilt (as he SHOULD be!) and now it's surfacing.

Annie, unfortunately, once the symptoms of his anxiety attack (and a few days) have passed, he will likely *forget* about it, and go back to life as he now knows it - I doubt that one incident will change him much. Just speaking from experience.......

I'll say I'm glad he's OK - another traumatic event is definitely not something you or your kids need to deal with right now......

Anxiety attacks can mimic a heart attack. I'm glad he's okay.
