Well, I ended up going back to the hospital a 2nd time in 24 hours. These attacks are pretty damn scary!! I knew I was going to have another one and I tried to ride it out at home by distracting myself and taking a cold shower but it didn't work. I got Brian to drive me in to AMC and I almost collapsed at the front desk, which was extremely embarrassing. There were a gazillion people there waiting for a room but the nurse ran out as soon as she saw me standing there an got me into the ER. I was hooked up to all the machines and told I looked deathly pale, which I thanked the nurse for. The oximeter read that my pulse was averaging 120 bpm, so I knew another attack was pretty close. They hooked me up and my pulse stayed the same throughout the next 10 minutes so they figured it was ok to leave. Well, not even one minute after they left, I had the attack and my heart rate shot up to 155 bpm. They ran back in and it slowed down by itself, which was strange but I was grateful lol. Anyway, I gotta run to the gas station and take a picture of Ayron or however the fuck you spell it....later skaters.
