Just read through this whole thread and am sat here thinking isnt it great that so many people have come on and posted nice comments wishing you a speedy recovery 
what a top forum and nice bunch of people 
I dont know you mate, but have seen your posts, and laughted at most of the abuse hurled at some people
, glad to hear that it was not as bad as it could have been, and that you are recovering well. Hope you're back to fighting strength soon.

Don't know you mate but I can relate to your situation, few years ago I woke up in the middle of the night couldn't breathe, excruciating(spl) pain in my chest, fell out my bed and collapsed on the floor. thought my time had come I was only 26/27 at the time. Couldn't even speak so couldn't wake the girlfriend. Thought I was gonna die right there on the floor. Luckily Donna heard me and ran round my side of the bed and sat me up and called an ambulance. Rushed in wired up in a blink of an eye. Couldn't fault the NHS at all. 
Turns out I had a severe chest infection which was causing swelling in my chest which in turn was basically crushing my heart. Never been so scared in all my life, as you say makes you think of things that you thought you wouldn't need to worry about for many years. Came out of hospital totally changed my outlook. I used to work 80hours a week easy, was hardly ever in the house, yeah money was great but you can't put a price on freetime IMO.
Ended up buying an S1 to give me an interest away from work - And I thought I had problems back then fook me nothin but worry these fukin cars.
Keep yer chin up mate and get well soon.

woke up on wednesday morning feeling like i had a cold, drove down to portsmouth to get the i.o.w ferry, realised by 7:15 summit was wrong .
i could not breathe properlychest felt really tight, also had pins and needles in my left hand and my left fore arm was feeling really tight..
so drove myself accross portsmouth to the Q.A. hospital , parked the van up and walked to A & E
got seen immediatly and wired up , i was treated for a heart attack and i do really beleive it might have been a very mild one,
was stabilised and then taken to the coronry care unit
still finding it hard to breath properly and my chest feels a bit tight a bit light headed...
it was a major shock to me
and to be honest it still hasn't really sunk in.. was eventually diagnosed as pericarditis, but i do wonder about it....
i'm not out of the woods yet as i still feel crap i have ben ordered to have at least 2 weeks total rest, will have to see how i feel afetr that.
given me a severe kick though, just realised how precious life really is the look on lisa's and my kids faces when they turned up was so upsetting. it is only really starting to sink in at the moment as to how close it really was or how bad it could have been
still sat here in tears trying to come to terms with everything,
once again many thanks for your kind words i relly feel moved that so many have offered help and support <-- real ones 
so im going to be sat on my arse for the next few weeks
going to drive me up the wall
if anyone wants to pop down im sure i can make a cup of tea or open a beer for you
once again many thanks for your kind words
