First clear night in ages.

Well first clear night in ages and I missed it had pain in my chest dinner time went after 10 minutes never thought much of it. 

Came tea time got a pain chest right on breast bone and a feeling like hot fluid running down into my stomach felt really faint seeing stars but not the ones in the sky. 

I wear a fitbit type device said my pulse was 52 so I rang 111 took details said someone would ring me back anyway 45 minutes later paramedic rang asked me questions then said sending a ambulance for me I needed checking face to face. 

Had ecg said that was fine did bloods everything came back OK but I needed to make appointment with my gp so I could be monitored for 24/48 hours because of my low pulse never got above 66 even though I was panicking I was having a heart attack. 

Best to make sure but missed my first night out in probably 12 weeks.

You did the right thing. You can't be too careful with Cardio. The problem is the  signs of indigestion and pending heart problem are much the same. The night sky will not go away. hope you feel better soon and that you will be ok....Dave

You did the right thing, you can’t be too careful with your health.

I am glad you posted your unpleasant experience because chest pains should never be ignored and dismissed as heart burn or indigestion, it could be heart problems. A few years ago I went through a period, a month or two, of a nasty pain in my chest which I dismissed as heart burn. When none of the usual remedies worked I went to my GP. To get to the point it was angina causing the pain and I was given medication to prevent it. My GP advised me that had I continued to ignore the pain it could have developed into a full blown heart attack.

Never ignore chest pains, better to chance feeling a little foolish than to feeling nothing ever again!

Thank you all I even said I felt like a charlatan they said no not a waste of time you only have one heart and better sending for a ambulance so everyone is right better safe than sorry.
