A few days ago I was wondering if I'd have to get creative to not lose the FSA money other than the $500 that rolls over to the next plan year (starting in November for us.)
Around 8:30 this morning I got a call which told me it wouldn't be an issue.
My DH drove himself to the ER with a racing heart and chest pains. By the time I got there it was confirmed that it was AFIB symptoms.
His heart rate was 180+, his bp was high, and he was having constant chest pains.
After over two hours of meds, his heart rate was averaging 160+ and he still was having chest pains.
So they did something called a cardio inversion - basically reset the heart.
In two tests of his enzymes, it showed the number went from 17.4 to a higher # - which according to my retired nurse aunt indicates that it was a heart attack.
Tomorrow he's having a stress test and a heart catheter. At which point we'll find out if he needs a stent or a bypass …
I am so thankful for our fully funded medical deductible fund, so I'm not stressing about the money at all. (Yet …)
