So relieved to read that it isn't that serious

I hope your DH will take care.

Deb, last summer my cardiologist put me on a med that almost killed me & I too had an early AM ambulance visit to the ER---it was very, very scary---esp. for my DH. When I got off the meds I came back to "normal" and have been fine since then. The doctor had warned me not to go off the meds. lest I have a heart attack---but in the end it was the meds that almost killed me. Sometimes following doctors orders can be dangerous too---so don't be too hard on DH.

I've read thru and happy for you both that he's home and doing Ok now!

Don't get me started on 'men" and thier meds! My hubby is overall pretty good but with his diabetes meds he does do a bit of self-dx /treating. He'll take a random BG test and if high he'll immediately take a pill. I've told him time and again to be careful about 'chasing numbers' or he can cause the very problem he's trying to 'treat'. I had to really 'fight' to convince hime to NOT take a pill that he wasn't 'sure' if he had taken ( he was going to take one to be sure!! ) He had to go for his infusion and if he HAD taken he could go too low! He took it with him..along with his meter and I told him he could test once settled in. He did and his reading was fine.

He came home and said "I guess you were right"....
what!!!??? an admission "I" was right!!??

glory be!!

Do hope this scarey episode will be a learning lesson for your hubby and he'll follow orders or at least consult with DR before doing things ( or not doing them) on his own .
