As opined by Lainybelle, 
“It Could Be Windy’s Heart, I Hope It’s Not“, I am back from the Hospital with the Cardiologist’s confirmation that it is my heart that is in trouble. This is not good news at all for me.
I have been suffering this recurrent chest pains (where the sternum is located) and the onset of the chest pains is always after I have eaten food that tend to produce more flatulence in the stomach. Believe me there are such kinds of food, like as though they serve a worthy cause – to propagate farts and it adds more color to life.
The pain that I suffer is a crushing pain a wee bit towards the left of my sternum and it radiates to my back on the left side. The pain hovers from any length of time between 45 minutes to an hour. On two separate occasions, the pain remained for 2 hours but on Saturday, Jan 15th. it lasted from 5 pm till 9 pm, a horrifying 4 hours.
What is peculiar about this pain is that it does not exhibit the usual symptoms that are attendant with myocardial infarction or what is popularly called as heart attack.
The following day, Jan 16th. I sought an opinion from a qualified Medical Practitioner. Having heard about what triggers my chest pains, he insisted on running an ECG. The result of the ECG shocked him enough to turn and say to me, “It is some sort of miracle that you are still alive till now”. He hastily wrote a referral letter which I had to hand over at the Hospital’s Emergency Front Desk.
This is going to be a long article. The next part will follow shortly. I can’t exert myself too much at the computer as I need to get sufficient rest.

I can only say a prayer of gratitude for you being better and able to write (even) an unfinished post now! Thank God! Those myocardial infarction and chest pains you’ve mentioned definitely don’t sound good. Now I’ll wait for your next update.

It is scary, what the doctor told you was the same as the comment that my husband got when he had the same chest pain two years ago. It’s more scary for wives I guess. will for you and Lainy.

@Recel,
Hi Recel!
There is something definitive that I have to say as part of how many parts it would take to complete my narration.
Thank you for your supportive encouragement as always.
God Bless you and all at home!
