Ugh... spent 10 hours in the ER this morning.
For the past several weeks I've been having some mild discomfort in my chest. Then last night it got much worse. Unfortunately I'm not sure how sudden the onset was. I was absorbed in a computer game, sitting in the same position, for almost four hours when I suddenly realized my chest was really tight and achy and my right shoulder was sore. I figured it was from sitting hunched over a computer for so long and so took a hot shower that seemed to fix the shoulder pain but not the chest.
I had only had a couple of sticks of celery with peanut butter for lunch and this was a little after 8pm so I thought maybe it was some kind of heartburn or indigestion from lack of food; so I made and ate dinner (steak and salad with balsamic vinaigrette dressing) and several Advil to see if that would make a difference. I decided to give it an hour to see if that helped and then would go into urgent care if it didn't.
