Tossing.....Turning.....But the heart is ok

I am writing this entry now at this ungodly hour because yet again, I am tossing and turning and unable to fall asleep. At least tonight, I have the company of the family (who don't know I'm awake). When this happens to me in the Spice Isle, I am alone....and that is some scary sh*t I tell you!

What is the reason?

Have no clue. The symptoms? Rapid heart beat. Gurgling in my upper stomach if there is such a place (I should go on Web MD). Spasms in the muscles of my chest. I know it is not a heart attack because on Sunday I did both an ECG and an EKG. Pocket bruk now!

I have had SEVERAL ECG's. They all come back with a healthy graphical reading of my heart. Sunday was the first EKG. Now that was interesting. Of course, I got to look at the screen while the doctor was taking images of my heart. I could see the walls (very healthy...no thickening). I could see the valve flapping away. Nothing untoward there. I could hear the swish of the blood through the chambers. Everything checked out ok.

There was this extra bit of muscle he mentioned, that was flapping up and hitting against something beginning with an S. But he said that was nothing to worry about. So I'm not.

I just wanna know what di ass is keeping me up all night.......AGAIN!!!!!! The mind is clear as far as I am aware. I wonder if it is muscular? Let's go check out WebMD. That's a kool site for tossers and turners like me.
