| Posted 2/19/2002 4:46 PM (GMT -6) |   | Hey guys, I know it must seem as though I've got WAY too many prayer requests these days but hopefully, this will by my last for awhile. Things have been extremely stressful for us new people at my job. I didn't realize how stressful until I woke up Sunday (am) thinking I was having a heart attack. After two full days in bed (thank God for President's day off), I went to school today and started describing what was happening to my friend; she said she had the same thing when she had an anxiety attack. (that didn't really sink in until later) Well, we went to a meeting today where we discussed some major issues and by the time I was half way home, I realized my chest didn't hurt anymore. My point is, please pray that I manage this stuff better and please pray that I get MUCH better at "letting go and letting God." I know it's an overused statement but.. it seems to be all too true.

I have to ask (compelled by motherhood) did you see a doctor about this?
I am praying for wisdom, peace, and wholeness...
exceeding blessings,
selah

I have suffered from panic attacks. But I have never had the symptom of a heart attack. Sounds like that is what is was.
Is this in fact what it was? An anxiety attack? Or was it some different symptom that was occurring when she was having an attack? If it was a anxiety attack, there is a great book out there that is next on my list to read that helps you take control of these attacks. It's by Archibald Hart who teaches at Fuller. Here's the book. It's a must read. Check out the sample pages.

| Posted 2/20/2002 12:41 PM (GMT -6) | | Selah,
A doctor would require time; time is something I don't have. I've been booked solid with can't miss meetings for the past two weeks. I'm going to call tomorrow to try to get in the same day; hopefully that will work out.
The problem is that we have a person on staff who has been pretty, well...not nice. That person has been the root cause of an added workload and much added stress in our job and in dealing with co-workers. Yesterday, some of us met with supervisors to get help. If I said panic attack; I meant anxiety attack. You would not believe the level of relief I've experienced since that meeting. I was experiencing back pain, neck pain and chest pains. I was literally half way home from that meeting when I realized most of the pain was gone. Today, I still have my cold but the physical pain is completely gone, I'm more cheerful and this has been a more productive day than I've had in weeks. I'm thinking that they (the doctor) will say its stress but I will try to get in to see someone tomorrow sometime.
Thanks for your prayers; it alway helps!
Geej

| Posted 2/23/2002 6:07 AM (GMT -6) | | Just an update. I went to the doctor and I'm find. I have an upper respiratory (sinus in particular) infection and the doctor thought that the chest pains were stress induced. Anyway, thank you for your prayers and I think I'll be fine as soon as the drugs (antibiotics...not the good stuff) kick in. : )

Thank you guys!
