I was awake at 6...and just laid there for a while. I got up a bit after 7ish cause I was sore and uncomfy. My right shoulder is...out, off...not sure. Its popping but not settled yet. I'm pretty sure I slept on it way wrong. Plus the food from yesterday isn't happy either in my tummy. Bleah.

Gotta get ready and now I'm very worried about [livejournal.com profile] cowboy_r...hopefully he keeps us posted. Heart attacks aren't good...even if minor.

Time to get cleaned up for music practice..wish it was later in the day. I'm feeling pretty antisocial right now.

Went and saw [livejournal.com profile] cowboy_r at TMC room 537. Use the North East Entrance to get to his room easily.

He's doing well, not hooked up to any IV's and only on telemetry. His heart attack was really, really mild. He felt some pressure earlier on Saturday night and thought it was just food gas, then later he felt pain under his scapula. It was then that he decided to head to the hospital. Since it was after midnight and his aunt was out and his uncle was at a sleep study he drove himself to the ER. They triaged him immediately after he said "there is a possibility I'm having a heart attack." and they confirmed his suspicions. He has a very, very small blockage on one very small vein on his heart. So small that they almost didn't see it. Its too small for a stint. So, it was very, very mild but still serious.

The doctor came in while I was there and said they would be putting him on cholesterol meds and statins. Plus, they recommended exercise and loosing weight as well since he's too young for this. I finally got to meet the talented mister [livejournal.com profile] hamner and [livejournal.com profile] cowboy_r's 2 uncles. They are fun. Reagan's sense of humor comes from his family. You can so tell...plus they read Glen Cook...so how bad can they be?

So, for those who want to visit, he's under observation for another 24 hours. Then he will be home.

I have to say, hospitals still creep me out. I'm not used to the "open" format the ones in Tucson have...you can't just walk in the one's in SD and find people. Very, very odd.
