What problems made you go to the ER?

Posted Jun 12 2009 1:32pm

Hello, I left out a few things in my bio.  But I had my first ER visit August of 2008.  I had been having flank kidney pain and shortness of breath all year.  But one day it had reached a point of panic when my heart was racing, kidney hurt, was having difficult breathing and lying down to rest only made things worse.  I had to call my husband because I was unable to sit up without feeling like throwing up or passing out.  Instead of driving 50 miles to the hospital that had removed my kidney........my husband turned around and took me to the closest ER.

Morphine got rid of the pain and DR kept me in CICU because of a small amount of enzyme registering in the bloodwork.  But it scared the daylights out of me. I never had a reason to go to the Hospital other than to have children.

So what problems have other people had where they needed medical attention?
