Gin (who had rushed over from her nearby home) told me in a steady voice "you have serious heart disease, and we're taking you to the Cath Lab right away." It was very scary, although they treated us efficiently and quickly got me to an examination room. We walked up to the emergency room door and she announced to the nurse "My husband is having a heart attack." She is a "shero" (female hero) for getting me there safely! At the Hospital Door
My wife remained calm, although inside she was a wreck.
We raced the 15 minutes to Marin General Hospital as I steadied my nerves, attempting to breathe slowly and fully. I asked her to drive me to the emergency room at the local hospital at about 2 am. She asked for more details, but there was nothing else I could really say to describe it. I said I felt bad, that something was really wrong.
My blood pressure was 161 over 95 very very high. My pulse was racing at 93 beats per minute - my heart was struggling even as I rested quietly. I knew that I needed to get this checked out by a doctor. It was 1:30 am, and I felt bad in an odd sort of way, even lying down.
