MY daughter is a student at K-State University in the pre-vet program.
She is doing well at school and I am very proud of her.

She was been having some health problems lately, chest pains, pains down the arm. This has been going on for about 3 week, she hid it from me for 2 of those weeks.

Sunday she was in enough pain her roommate took her to the ER, an EKG was done and blood test, both cme back normal. She was given soemthing for anxiety and pain while at the hospital.

This afternoon she went to the University Clinc, the doctor who examined her told her to go to the hospital/ER but she refused to go. She has an appointment sheduled with a doctor at the UrgentCare Clinc in Manhattan Friday. She was told if things get worse she will need to go to the hospital between now & Friday.

My daughter has a history of heart problems, Mitral valve prolaspe.

She saw the doctor today, internal medicine.

His opinion is she has an infection of the ligaments of the chest.

She is being sent to a heart specialist. They tried to get her in to one today but a semi wrecked and took out the lines at the medical center where the cardio is located so it will likely be tomorrow when she sees the cardio.
