DH has apparently been having chest pains for a few months. He's always been "long-suffering" and so hasn't mentioned it to me apart from occasionally, in passing, when my reaction has been "go and see the GP then."
On Tuesday morning, after I'd driven him to the train (10 mins) he sat in the car looking uncomfortable. I asked if it was a chest pain, he said it was.
I persuaded him to let me book him into the GP, who by chance had a slot that evening. He came back with a referral to hospital for an ECG and chest x-ray, and was to go back "2 weeks later as his blood pressure was on the high side". I went to hospital with him yesterday, the person administering the ECG apparently said it looked ok.
The pains are still ongoing - last night he was sitting watching tv, and suddenly was hit by one. They're not agonising, but uncomfortable, and he keeps saying "something's blocked".
I know the internet is dangerous, but having looked it seems to me to be something like angina, although not triggered by effort or exercise. Is 2 weeks a little long to be waiting to see a GP again, only to be told (presumably) "tests are inconclusive, go and have some more"?
I'm getting wound up by this, he's obviously not happy and has admitted he's getting more concerned by them now, and not just shrugging them off.
From everything I've read, we should be seriously worried. Am I missing something..? The GP's off on holiday now, and while another has offered to see him, he's clutching at the straw that the GP obviously thinks it's fine, why rush it.
Sorry this is long, but I've decided I've got to be more positive towards him, to keep his spirits up, and I have no-one in RL to talk to.
