Worried

Something is up with my hubby's health and I'm really starting to worry.

First of all, he's diabetic, so he has all the health problems & risks that goes along with that.

Secondly, he used to be a paratrooper in the Army.  He's 6'4".  Much too large of a man to have been jumping out of airplanes for 6 years. His back, knees, and feet are shot.   At 37 years old, he hobbles around like an old man most of the time.   His line of work doesn't help either.  He's on his feet, up and down ladders, and all every day.

Thirdly, for the past week he's had a feeling of pressure in his chest.  Yesterday at work, he started getting really dizzy and almost passed out.  His partner took him to the ER, and I met them a little while later.  They ran all kinds of tests and couldn't find anything wrong with his heart or lungs.   So, they just let him go home.  Still dizzy.  Still in pain.

He's at his primary Dr. right now and is going to have a stress test done tomorrow.   I feel like they are looking in the wrong area, but I'm no doctor, right?

To sum up, I'm just worried right now.    I want answers.   Saying they can't find what is wrong is no comfort to me at all.
