This is a fear that really gets me, as in my mind reassurance blood tests etc. can spot most illnesses, but of course an undiagnosed heart condition is just that, undiagnosed.
I'm a 19 year old male, fairly healthy, average if not just a tiny bit under weight (8 and a half stones, 5'8 or so).
Now the fear is of such conditions that have either been there my whole life or have developed recently or gotten worse.
The reason I worry about this - last year in a friends school a seemingly happy healthy guy with no diagnosed problems died in his sleep one night, with an undiagnosed heart condition. The guy was quite sporty and was fine in school one day etc....
Now to be honest that scares the daylights out of me, and to be honest I think I am looking for some reassurance regarding it. Sometimes it can get to me, like for instance half an hour ago I drew in that breath just before you sneeze and I had what could only be described as a heart twing,e thus setting off such feelings in my head, worrying times.. :weep:
