i am a 40 yr old female. high cholesterol since age 19. no meds. no reflux history. father had 6 bypasses. two weeks ago at 3 am i woke up from having chest pain in the middle of my chest. after a couple of minutes, i got real dizzy and very nauseated. went to bathroom to throw up where i then broke out in a cold sweat with the worst feeling of doom. i prayed. a few mins later, all the symptoms except the dizziness went away. did not go to the ER. next day, i had a EKG, followed by a stress test days later. no bloodwork. i was told that the EKG was abnormal but it was nothing to worry about and i passed the stress test. i was given reflux med (it was not reflux) and told that cath was not really needed. should i get one anyway. this has never happened to me before.
