First, if you have symptoms, get checked! I was foolish for about 2-3 months! I felt the following:
Tired - sluggish and just thought it was being 57 years old & busy!
Second, Tightness in chest. After mowing my yard, I was winded & had a tightness in my chest. No pain, just a VERY tight & heavy feeling in my chest!
And third, just the slightest exercise was difficult! This changed quickly! I was doing my morning walks & felt fine, but sluggish three months prior to my check up. But, each month & week that past, it changed to the last month I needed to stop in the middle of my walk. The last few weeks, I had trouble taking a complete lap around the school that I worked!! Going up a stairs was VERY difficult!!!
If I would have waited longer, what would I have missed?
1 - My older sons wedding
2 - My younger sons wedding
3 - The birth of my first grand daughter
4 - The birth of my second grand daughter
5 - Three & a half years of retirement!
So, get checked!!!
