"Accused of only having a panic attack"

I woke up with chest pain in the night. Having had a previous heart attack I took some asprin and called 111. The pain became worse and an ambulance arrived. Two very efficient paramedics decided to transfer me to hospital. 

I was placed in a room on a trolley with sides up. Put on ecg monitor. Bloods taken. Cannula inserted. I was then left alone in the room. Door closed. Nurse call button out of reach. The pain in my chest started to build again. It was unbearable. I could not get off the trolley and I started to shout for help. This pain kept growing. It was the worst ever. After some time that felt like forever, some person came in the room. I asked them to get me off the trolley. They let the side down. I needed to be walking, leaning over things, anything to deal with this excruciating pain in my chest. All the time they just watched me. I sat down rocking with the pain. This person squatted in front of me and asked me why was I having a panic attack? Why was I panicking?  This was the so called doctor. 

I was having the worst, severe chest pain and I was being accused of having a panic attack! Fantastic. I decided it really was not worth answering the doctor. Fortunately we were joined by some lovely nurses who got some morphine for me and I was transferred to C.C.U. The care there was second to none.

Such a shame that I now dont see the point in attending a&e if it happens again. In the middle of a heart attack no one needs to be accused of only having a panic attack by the doctor that would have to resuscitate them. That made the situation worse.

Blood tests were convincing that the levels were showing a heart attack. Far from a panic attack.
