Woke up this morning with my stomach and chest in the worst pain I've ever experienced. It felt like extreme gas pain so I just rolled around in agony for a few hours before my wife made me go to the hospital.

So far the took a bunch of blood, did a CT scan and two EKGs. A cardiologist looked at my EKGs and now they're admitting me. Sweet!

Whatever my issue is, it's likely my own fault. I work in the brewing industry and am definitely an alcoholic with an occasional cig thrown on. Still, never fun to be told you have to sleep at the hospital because your heart probably sucks.

I reaaaaallly didn't want to be in a hospital during COVID. :/

maybe you'll get out of there soon enough. i don't trust hospitals right now. i sprained my left leg and right hand pretty good in a pothole to need to go the hospital a few months ago.

ended up having to use 1 crutch for 2 weeks. shit hurt when walking on it. thankfully my hand wasn't super busted to continue gaming.

edit: i was walking home from grocery outlet bargain market oops. had to walk close to a mile on a swelling foot.

Yeah, being a career alcoholic hasn't been nice to me. ShockedPikachu

My EKGs are weird. Something along the lines of the electric is passing the opposite direction on my heart.

I've got fatty liver. Need to stop drinking to prevent further damage and eventually cirrhosis. The news anyone in the beer industry fears.

High blood sugar, sugar in my urine. Probably diabetic.

They think I will need to have my gall bladder removed. May or may not have stones.

Blood pressure isn't great.

So I'm sleeping the hospital tonight, hooked up to a drip, gettin'ng blood work done every fees hours, probably more EKGs, stress test,maybe an MRI.

I guess it's time to make the changes I've been saying I would for the past five or so years. Hope it's not too too late!
