Please HELP OVERDoSED IN HOSPITAL

I Am 23 years old I use to be pretty healthy and pretty outgoing tell march 5th 2009. I was admitted to the hospital to do a D n C due to Bleed to much from a missed miscarriage, The procedure went really well i can out of surgery not bleed at all, While in recovery the nurse ended up pushing to much demerol in the system and i went into cardiac arrest and respitory arrest, they ended up doing cpr on me to bring me back. Well after all that i was in the hospital over night to be observed  all test they did shows that everything was normal i released the next day. Ever since this whole incident i have these episode were my chest will start to pound and my heart races i get really nausated and sweety sometimes i dont even remeber what is going on My pupils dilate to a ten and when they put the light to my eyes there is barely any reaction. My mom says it is like im not there i can't talk my lips quiver,palpations  but it all starts with chest pain with bad episodes my lips turn blue and i have shallow breathing. Sometimes they aren;t this bad it just chest pain and then it goes into my jaw like a bad tooth ache and my head starts to hurt and i get sick and start throwing up and i do run fever during this but after it passes my fever goes away. I spent a week in the cardiac floor doing testing and everything turns out normal they have even did eeg to see if it was seizures and mri and tilt table stress test Echos and some others but they all say im Completely healthy. I'm so tired of the drs telling me the only problem i have is low blood pressure and that everything esle is healthy and normal. I have two kids one is 5 the other one is 2 and i can't be the mom i use to be because im scared what could happen, Im not allowed to drive, My mom or my sisters or my husband is always with me im not allowed to be alone. There is something wrong and they just can't find it. If anyone has any idea what this is please HELP

I know this isn't what you are going to want to hear, but if you had all of those tests done and they are ALL normal, go on and live your life!! You have had a bad scare and that is probably playing into how you feel and are thinking. If you had heart disease, bad enough to cause the symptoms that you are describing, they would have found the heart problem with very little work-up, believe me. Heart disease during any kind of attack never causes a person to have any kind of fever either. Chest pain is caused by a lack of blood flow to the heart muscle; it called Coronary Heart Disease and you are miles TOO YOUNG for that to be going on, it takes YEARS for the arteries to be blocked. The other thing that can cause chest pain is something called Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy where the walls of the heart are so thick that the blood supply is outstripped and the person is having constant heart attacks. Both of those problems would have been EASILY diagnosed! Saying your lips are blue; you would have to have severe heart disease, such as having Tetrology Of Fallot, for that to be going on, or you could just simply be cold. There is no reason for you to not be able to be alone. You need to get on with your life and try to stop worrying yourself into becoming what's known as a 'cardiac cripple'. There are many out there who would give their eye teeth to switch places with you, believe me, my daughter is one of them; she had to have a heart transplant at 22. Heart disease robbed her of her childhood and her teen years. Enjoy your life and your children.
