DH experienced some tightness in his chest yesterday. Much to my surprise he immediately asked a coworker for a ride to the clinic at work, got an EKG and got checked out. Everything appeared fine but when it continued today he followed up with his doctor. He had another EKG and a blood draw. At this point everything looks fine and it seems he likely he just strained a muscle in his chest. The likely culprit seems to be excessive coughing from an awful daycare cold.

I'm surprised he took it so seriously and acted immediately but I'm very glad he did. We're expecting LO2 any time now and I need DH and his ticker in tip top shape. I'm thankful he's fine and that we had health coverage to get him checked out.

I'd like to think all my loved ones (and myself) would be so responsive to symptoms but I have my doubts. Maybe he can be my good example.
