On Sunday, November 18th Jerry was having symptoms that to me indicated he might possibly be having a heart attach. The symptoms came on suddenly and he was having pain in his shoulders, pain in his jaw, and nausea. Jerry was scaring me during church and I asked him if we needed to leave and he said no. After church we went home and he said he was feeling better, but the rest of the day he was very lethargic. I told him I thought we needed to go to the hospital to make sure he wasn't having a heart attack and he said he didn't think so. On Monday, I looked up the symptoms and showed him... then he thought maybe his symptoms indicated he possibly did have a heart attack. Jerry's oncologist ordered an EKG and the physician told Jerry it did not look like it was. Jerry told his oncologist that, if he every has similar symptoms he would take them more seriously and go to the hospital immediately.

I have to say I agree...if ever he's having these symtoms, get him to the doctor immediately! That's why they have the sign in most doctor's offices "if you are having trouble breathing or chest pains let us know immediately"! Better to be safe than sorry! Easier to treat minor symptoms before they become major! That's my official diagnosis! :-)
