I’m exhausted...bf woke me up with arm pain last night thinking maybe a heart attack but refused to call 911. I was like wtf. He said maybe I should drive him to Er at 2am. I’m like they won’t let me stay with you due to covid I’d just have to drop you off and you’ll be with all the covid people in the waiting room, better to go in the back and get a a gurney from ambulance. Trust me my family has been in the Er all this year and ambulance is the way to go. He was worried about his insurance coverage and I was like they cover a heart attack...just call and talk to them. Anyway two hours later he’s still deciding what to do I was like you’d probably be gone by now if this was a heart attack and went to bed. Idk if I have compassion fatigue or if it’s because I was so tired.

He called his doctor this morning and doctor was like not a heart attack you worry too much. Now he wants an ekg from urgent care.....I’m like you have to get the ekg when you’re having symptoms not after they’re gone. I still think he should have called 911 last night just to be safe but he was worried about money.

On the plus side he called his insurance today and they were like yeah 300 copay for hospital which is standard. I told him next time call 911 and he still doesn’t agree.

Always better to take an ambulance because they can help you if something happens on the way....Hospital is thirty minutes away. This is especially true during covid though because you end up on the intake side not just a general waiting room.
