Last week I was silently dealing with what I thought were heart issues. On Friday, it only got worse, with my heart racing, shortness of breath, dizziness, nausea & a few other things. I become very scared & ended up in the ER, where they thought I was having a heart attack. After a miserable night there & my fever going from 99 to 102.4 (within an hour) & several tests....Everything came back clear. Except they discovered it was an Urinary Tract Infection causing all of those symptoms. What a relief to know it was not my heart. I will tell ya though, I have never in my life been this sick. Going to the ER when I did saved my life, because the infection was running rampant in my body. The thing is the only symptoms I had been experiencing was the heart racing, so to hear that it was an UTI causing it was a shock. I'm now full of meds & on bed rest for a few days.
