Heart Diseases

ok, i started weight watchers in January 2007 and by april i had lost like 40 pounds so i decided to start walking and jogging I would walk for about forty five minutes and then jog for like 15.on June 29th i was sitting at home and my heart started to beat faster like racing and then slowed down. After that happened my left arm started to get numb and i started to freak out which probably did not help the situation. I went to the doctor and they did and ekg exam and they said that i was ok and that i probably had a panic attack. Well now it Dec and to date i have lost 85 pounds. I constantly worry that im going to have a heart attack and sometimes my chest starts hurting and i'd like to think thats it's all in my head but sometimes i think that it could be something really serious. I have stopped walking and jogging because im scared that i will have a heart attack and drop dead. I am constantly worrying about it and people tell me that it's all in my head and not to think about it.

i went to the doctor because for the last 2 or so weeks I have had constant pain in my chest like a belt tied round it compressing, sharp stabbing pain just to the left of my breastbone. the pain increase when im running etc and goes when im resting. a few days ago i had to run for a train and the pain got very bad, my breathing became rapid and i became very dizzy. i now get dizzy most times i stand up. i explained this to the doctor but he just said that i had low blood pressure ~ 80/40, he did not mention if this was a cause for concern but im still worried it's something more than just that! im only 16 this is not supposed to be happening at my age!

I have a slow heartbeat, and when I am laying down or taking a bath, I can, at times, lose conciousness or just visually black out when standing.

I'm curious as to exactly what's happening, and if there is medication or specific foods I can eat to increase my blood pressure.

Thanks

details: when a person bleeds profusely or is suffering from blood cancer, he may require blood from outside. this process of transfer of blood from a healthy person to a sick person is called blood transfusion.

Does anyone know anything about SVT? I know quite a bit but would like to hear what other people have to say. Doctors told me I had it last October when my heart randomly went about 210 beats/minute. Any information could be helpful =)

Serious answers only please.

I want to know if having a heart attack is inevitable for me.
What tests should I have done? Also, what tests are available to see if I have any coronary artery blockages?

Hi,
I have had a kind of dull ache in the region of my heart for a couple of months now, nothing outrageous, just feels like someone is applying pressure with a thumb (it's that localised) to my chest. I don't really want to go to the doctors and have that on my medical record, but I am a little concerned! I also have a little numbness in my fingers when I grab things, could this be physcosematic, or indacative of a problem, also if it is a problem, does it sound like something that can be treated, or will I just have to live with it until it gets worse? Iam 46 overweight by about 4 stone, and I smoke (recipie for disaster I know), any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

We were doing science projects in school today. One guy was checking people's blood pressures for his project. My heart rate was 105 and it went up to 108 after an energy drink. My friend's heart rate was 120 and she's thin too. I got back home and I checked again and now its 91. I'm 14, weigh 131 which is normal for my height. I have been experiencing a lot of stress in school because finals are coming up. My mom has heart problems. Can this be because of the stress? Please help..

My relative was born with a hole int heir heart that the doctors never knew about so eventually the hole grew bigger.

But they said that the exact cause of death was a heart attack and a stroke in their sleep. I just don't get how it can be both? Can someone explain this to me? Thanks.
