How Do You FEEL Now?

[Red Cat Jenny]

I had bad reflux * just before it became trendy *

The pains from the area where your esophagus meets your stomach are just near the solar plexis.

I know what you mean. I have even had pains radiating down my left arm along with the chest. Benn woken in the middle of the night by it. Then that acid feel in your throat follows. It's very scary. I carried a bottle of Axid like someone would carry nitro at all times for 2 years. It works almost instantly and is non prescrip.

I learned what flares it up and it took a few years to heal it.

I still have a milder version now and then.

So yes it can be your stomach.

By no means EVER ignore chest pain. It can be a host of things. Go see a doctor if it recurrs.

But I empathise with you. It's quite scary.

[Red-Handed Jill]

There was no burning or acid feeling. I kept trying to pin down a description of the pain, but couldn't. It just hurt - centered in the sternum area and radiated out. I looked at some heart attack pain diagrams and one matched what I had felt exactly. So I got worried all over again.

But, to prove to myself that it wasn't a heart attack I went on a brisk two-mile walk and was fine - if it had been a heart attack I don't think I could have finished that walk.

Geez, Jill, isn't going on a two mile run to prove you're not having heart problems a little extreme?

I mean, couldn't you have done a couple dozen jumping jacks in your livingroom first? (And no, I don't mean THAT kind of jumping Jack — although he might have enjoyed it.)

Glad your feeling better, but if you did have a problem, finding you in the street with the buzzards circling means it is probably way too late to fix it.

[Black Syren]

Im feeling 100% Wonderful and spirited...Isn't life wonderful?

[Red-Handed Jill]

Geez, Jill, isn't going on a two mile run to proof you're not having heart problems a little extream?

Not extreme by my standards. I felt pretty good by then and it was a lovely day.

Heh, "jumping Jack" - that's later tonight...

[BriarRose Kildare]

Oh, Syren I am so Happy for ya. Hugs.

As for me, excited, happy and satisfied. lookin' forward to the weekend.

[LadyBarbossa]

Yikes! Jill, Hope that be th' only time you feel it.

Gall bladder felt like that (couldn't breathe either).

Yes, getting older does suck healthwise that is. Well, at least it's a good thing with the 2 mile hike, m'dear, that ye didn't keel over.

As for me, tired but satisfied. Had a wonderful day. The sun was shining and the sky was a bright blue. Got to go for a walk in the woods which was wonderful (in me bare feet). Mmmmm, how I love the spring.

My emotions have been running the gamut lately. It's been an odd couple of weeks for me. I've been confronted by (in no particular order) life, death, obsession, change, nostalgia, why people who take the usual path are are so fascinated by those of us who tend toward the road not taken, wisdom, my own life choices, happiness, lust, aging, friendship, naivete (not mine, thank goodness), luck, old secrets and not-so-secrets, respect, adulation and fear. A lot of this has fortunately sorted itself out but I still have a bit of figurative mopping up to do.

[Capt. Sterling]

Sorry to hear that Jill, but welcome to the club...

[Red-Handed Jill]

Aye - humans are a rather perverse species.

At least this time it didn't end up with a man weeping on my porch.
