Chest/Heart Pain
Basically I'm a 19 year old lad, don't smoke or really drink at all (honestly)....
Anyway I have bad acid reflux and the like but recently I have been getting bad cheast/heart pains which are a great hinderance.
Now, the worried anious part of my brain convinces myself I have an undiagnosed heart condition that is waiting to strike soon, knowing of someone my age who died in their sleep because of he same thing has also scared me.
Thing is, I'm currnetly experiencing the chest pain and can say it'ls like half an hour of feeling chest cramp and feeling the heart almost struggle to beat it appears - best way to describe would be it feels like my heart is pressured to the max.
Explained these problems in passing to my docor yesterday,
she listened to it with stethescope and said the breathing sounded fine and that becuase of my age/circumstances its not really a worry. The thing is, I'm currently experiencing it right now, feels like a tight overworked chest, almost cramp like symtoms, but it feels all over the heart, no where else...
