The slogan would be "I didn't do it".

Went to the doctor with chest pains on Monday thinking it was the flu. Doctor ran tests and called me at work and told me to go to the hospital on Tuesday, stated he thought I had a heart attack.

Hospital ran more tests, poked and prodded me. My heart is fine and so are my arteries. The really do not know what caused the chest pains. The discharge paper from the hospital stated some thing was elevated. Prob something associated with heart burn.

No I have to be carefully, they put and incision in my groin area for a coronary angiogram, they put die in my arteries. Very sore.

About 10 years ago my father was hospitalized for a day to run tests associated w/ his chest pains that didn't go away overnight. Turn out to be heart burn. He didn't enjoy the angiogram either.

Hope it turns out the same for you.

I can imagine if you missed that thread some of the "God forbid you mention something remotely associated w/ politics" furor that was/is going on around here would leave you mystified.

Funny how in the AARs of the WitP veterans, the guys advocating the most bloodthirsty strategies always have a low post count...

I think there's a lesson in there, but I don't know what it is...

Not the one from Steam. But I did buy that revival thereof that Matrix has.

Matrix redid the X-Com series?

Here's hoping for a quick recovery from whatever ails you.

You have a turn. Maybe that will improve your blood pressure.

It wasnt exactly a remake but the idea was about 90% the same.

Looks like they discontinued it.

i had a similar episode a few weeks ago...chest pains, started sweating, skin got clammy...no pain in left arm and the loci of the pain seemed slightly lower than my heart, so assume it was acid reflux or some such...it got immediately better once i drank some water...glad to hear the ticker and tubing is good...get well soon!

Well, take it easy on that then.

Unless youre doing a turn. Then by all means, drink until invading Vladivostok seems like a good idea.

The cheese burger did not compare with the turkey with mash potatoes with corn and bread with ginger ale for dinner.
