Marine needs help not getting answers from doctors !!

[maeganharo]

my husband is a US marine we are in jacksonville Nc. He fell over during the new Pysically training they have to do and couldnt get back up he had chest pain couldnt catch his breath and his heart felt like it was beating out of his chest along with sharp pains in his head. They ignored his request for help for early 4 minutes until someone saw he really needed help called 911 and was taken to Camp Lejuene Naval hospital. They did 3 EKG scans all of which came back abnormal. they gave him nytroglycerin under his tongue and two shots in his stomach. hooked him up to iv and heart machine and kept him in ICU over night.. ot only was i not aloud to see him i also couldnt get any information about what was wrong and my husband was also told nothing. they did 2 chest X-rays the next day let him go and said "we couldnt find out why your heart did what it did so we are sending you to a lung specialist here are the papers call them for an appointment"

we called... we were told he was not in the computers as a referal and could NOT help him till he calls and clears it up with the doctors in the ICU at camp lejuene.. we called them back and keep getting the cold shoulder and told to call back another time or they would call us back its been two weeks now and nothing.  what could be wrong with my husband what could of caused this to happen???  Hes been struggling with his weight it seems to go up and down all the time and they want him to run the PFT  next week i dont want him to and i dont believe they should make him till we get some answers  but we cant get any help! i dont want my husband fallng over and dying because  they cant pick up a phone. to everyone else he is just a number and just another marine but he is my husband and the father of my daughter and i cant lose him ! i need some answers.. hes suppose to deploy soon !! how can he deploy when this happened and we dont know what caused it. we need help from someone! please any answers would be appriciated!

also they said they'd never seen problems like they saw on the EKG on anyone his age that he was too young to have them come back like that (hes 25)

why cant we get aswers?

I would make sure he was thoroughly checked out before he is deployed or runs the PFT.  You probably need to go personally back to the hospital with whatever paperwork you have and make sure they put the referral in the computer.  I would not take no for an answer.  If you have to go higher up the chain, I would.  This is your husband's life and until you find out why he had this problem I would not leave a stone unturned.  The squeaky wheel gets the grease, be the squeaky wheel.

It sounds like someone is scared about those EKGs. I would talk to your base chaplian and explain your concerns; you would be surprised what a base chaplain is capable of getting accomplished. The PFT is a breathing test and I can't see any real danger in doing that test. It's not a test where they are running him on a treadmill. You need to know EXACTLY what those EKGs said. He should not be deployed if there are serious heart problems. Go and talk to your base commander and ask for his help!
