Sorry I have been MIA this week....
Monday evening I'm driving home from work and I start getting minor pains in my chest.
They are minor so I figure it will go away in a minute. I go to the barn and let the horses out.
The chest pains are getting worse. I go to the house and take an aspirin.
Few hours later I am still hurting and now the pain is in my chest, my shoulder and my arm.
My mom takes me to the emergency room where I am poked and prodded. We arrive a little before midnight and between midnight and 6 a.m. I have blood test done, an ekg, x-rays and a ct-scan.
Not to mention a shot in the rear-end and a nurse trying to get an IV in my arm unsuccessfully and instead using it as a pin cushion.
The end result is that I have an inflammation in my chest..... Not real sure what that means.... but basically it hurts to breath, hurts to move, hurts to sit still----- so basically just hurts!!!
I was given some anti-inflammatory medicine and pain medicine and sent on my way.
So far feeling a little better but not sure what caused it in the first place......
Taking a few days to rest, be back soon.

Take care chica-I was thinking the same as Phoebe, I wonder if it's stress. Either way get your R&R and we'll talk to you soon.
Thanks everybody! And yeah it may possibly be stress... feeling much better but was definitely a scary experience at the time!
