79. I think it was a "panic attack". I had a similar experience in 1990.

Nov 2019

My job was relocated to another State and I commuted between SC & Tx. for almost 3 months while looking for a house. I guess all that travel, new job, buying a house, working with all new people, and having a house closing was a bit more than my brain wanted to handle. One day at work, I got tingling down my one arm, faster heart beat, and tightness in my chest. I asked on of our Sectrtrys to take me to the ER. Make a long story short, they determined it to be a "panic attack", gave me a script to calm down my nerves, and I've been fine ever since.

With all the bad things hitting DT in the last few weeks, it wouldn't surprise me if that's what his visit to the ER was for. That would also explain why he wasn't kept for observation.
