So this happened
Sleep studies completed: 0 Vasovagal episodes : 1 (Probably. A bit embarrassing, but it happens ) Emergency responders: 4 or 5 (I think. It was kind of like this ) Emergency vehicles: 3 (ambulance, police car, and fire truck - why?) Tubes of " cherry goo " consumed in record time: 1 (yes, the EMT remarked about this and yes, I am strangely proud) Tests: infinity plus one (chest x-ray, ekg , eeg , echo , countless blood tests, etc.) Consulting physicians: 5 * (ER, Telemetry, Neurologist, Cardiologist, Endocrinologist) Finally saying enough is enough and checking myself out AMA : priceless . . . * I didn't wait for the endocrinologist, but I actually saw two cardiologists and I think more than one doc in the ER, so it was probably more than five total. Not to mention all the nurses, assistants, etc. It felt like overkill but I have to admit the quality of care was excellent.
