The next morning, a very eager doctor named Dr. Shilpa examined my chart and spoke with me. Trying to get some more of my history, I told him (as I told the doctor in the ER) that I had a pulmonary embolism twelve years ago. Things got very serious, very fast. The doctor had me immediately transported to the intensive care unit, where I spent three days. Several x-rays, a CAT scan, and a very uncomfortable sinus endoscopy were performed and it was concluded that a violent cough had acted as trauma on my lung and created the debilitating pneumomediastinum I had been diagnosed with. After the air had slowly found its way out of my mediastinum and up around the esophagus, it sat there for a couple days (my neck felt like rice crispies, or really tiny bubble wrap), and eventually reabsorbed in the esophagus.
After I was released, I spent nearly a month slowly recovering from home. The bills gradually started to come in, totalling over $20,000 (AFTER uninsured discounts).
Fortunately...
As a producer, I couldn't help but hear the rhythms and harmonies of the various beeps and clicks of the machinery that kept me alive in the hospital. So, I recorded them while I was there. I have been manipulating these sounds in 4 songs that I am in the process of producing for this EP.
