So I woke up at about 3:00AM this morning to the wonderful feeling of my chest hurting. It felt almost like someone had swung a 5lb. sledge at me and hit. At the time, I figured it was just how I was laying, so I managed to get back to sleep for a while.

When I woke up at 9:00AM, I was still in pain almost the same and I decided to check my pulse and such. My pulse was normal, but it was very strong. When I got out of bed and stood up, I nearly passed out.

I went about my day as normal, only I decided to take a break from caffeine for the day. All day, though, my chest hurt and I didn't feel "right". The guys at work even noticed I wasn't acting myself.

This kind of thing has happened before, and I traced it back to my consuption of the nasty chemical, caffeine. I don't know if I'm having panic attacks from it, or if I'm having more serious issues. Given the fact that healthcare isn't exactly cheap and that I've never even heard of "health insurance", visiting a doctor isn't really an option. My only choice right now is to cut the caffeine, be a grouch, and hope that the condition gets better. If it doesn't, or if it gets worse, I'm going to a doctor.

Right now, I'm going to bed. Goodnight.
