I was w

I was suppose to wear my monitorfor 48 hours.  About 22 hours into it i had extreme chest pain.  I ignored it.  All of a sudden mt heart hurt even worse.  An alarm went off with the heart monitor about 24 hours into it.  I call the VA hospitaland they said stop what your doing dial 911 and go to the nearest hospital so i did kinda.  The hospital did an xray normal. Did a cat scan normal as far as i know there was something elevated in my blood thats y they did tge cat scan.  The alarm wwnt off for 24 hours until the battery died.  I turned the monitor in thursday its now tuesday i just did an echo.  My cheest hurt the wholw time and i could tell it wasnt normal.  Towards thw end of the exam she put an IV in my arm and put meda in to make my heart reflect better.  Of course its tuesday night and im anxious for the results to come back.  My question y did my heart monitor go off 24 hours into it.
