Shooting pains!


Thursday, March 30, 2006

I’ve had the strangest chest pains for the last 5 days. For the last few it feels strangely like being shot in slow motion, almost like having one of those red rods they use on CSI slowly forced through my body.

It all started feeling vaguely like indigestion, then chest pains over my heart for 3 days and finally yesterday a pain in my back beneath my shoulder blade.

I cant admit to knowing what being shot actually feels like, and most of the accounts I’ve heard of people being shot or stabbed sound like none of the pain feels like anything you could expect. However this has felt like an amazing constant pressure on and through my chest and then a sharp, more muscular/skeletal pain in my back. What’s more no amount of pressing or manipulation seems to affect them, however if I do lie face down it does help.

I’m beginning to suspect that actually someone is sticking a knitting needle through a voodoo doll somewhere. I’ve pissed someone off and they’ve tried pointing the bone, mystical bullets or the evil eye. Must remember to be more careful where I leave my toenail clippings and put up more amulets. Which reminds me, I think my Hamesh at the door is not straight, and maybe even has a coat over it… have to fix that!

    I have to same problem and i just saw a doctor about it. I need to get an EKG done. I hope that it will help b/c I REALLY cannot live like this. I’ve had this for the past couple of weeks. Im just really scared that it can trigger a heart attack so I would see a doctor if possible. I know how you are feeling though it hurts really badly at random times during the day and night.

    And it’s only just beginning to subside now. I can still feel it lingering. It’s also strange that Heather has had something like it before me.
