Meltdown in 10 hours and 2 minutes. I'm starting to doubt my ability to go through with this. Trying desperately to get relaxation techniques to work. Meds arent even helping. My chest is getting tight so i know a panic attack is coming. My poor husband doesn't know what to do - except keep his head down. Poor guy. I'm so sorry for being such a baby, reading it sounds pathetic but not even close to my stress level. Your support really does help. Sometimes I just need to vent.

Oh, I do understand and I'm so sorry that you are experiencing this right now! I have to leave the house right now, but I'll get back with you when I have more time.

@vsinn2000 I've been thinking of you all day. I know that appointment days are exhausting. I hope you'll update us when you can, but don't feel obliged. Just know that we're thinking of you.

We left at 7 this morning and are finally in the car ramp with an hour drive. This place ,except EKG tech, has been absolutely horrible. Worst experience I've had with a hospital.

I'm so sorry to hear that your tough day was especially rough. What are the next steps?

Hello, @vsinn2000

That is so unfortunate - I was really hoping that it would be more bearable.

Was there anything that could have made the experience better?
