Ok well today I had an energy drink in the after noon and was feeling fine until just a nhour or so ago. We got back from taco cabana and about an hour after eating, I started to feel a crushing pain in the center of my chest. It just hurts though, and after a while it goes away. Then it comes back after 20 min or so again. There are no other symptoms like pain in neck or sweating. But could this be a minor heart attack? I'm 16 5'4" and 110 lbs btw...

Oh yeah, also when I laid down, it stopped hurting. It was a REALLY strong pain in the center of my chest this time, but I didn't seem to have any other problem. Just that pain.

Well my parents think I'm paranoid (and I am alot of the time) so they probably wont take me. I thought it was heart burn too, but I didn't think it would hurt this much O_O

K ill try to convince my mom. The thing is, my dad's an *** and he thinks that teens are perfectly healthy because they are young. I told him I might have cholestrol probs cuz he does, but noooooo "nothing happens until after 40, dont talk about it again" wtf.
Anyways, being 16, is it REALLY possible I had a heart attack?

Just tell your family and consult a doctor. Don't panic, and don't speculate on what it might be. Let the doc find out.

(SEE THE DOCTOR ASAP.............)
I think you should have a doctor's checkup as soon as possible. It could be the first warning of a major heart attack comming soon. My father had the same situation but he took it lightly and 3 days later he had a massive heart attack. Luckily he survived.
Yes anything is possible. Sometime even a heartburn type pain is actually a minor heart attack. Unless a Stress Test is conducted in the initial stages and later if necessary Thalium Test could also be done to be more certain whether it was a heart attack or something else. Take an Asprin and
--------->GO TO THE DOCTOR !

No, I don't think you had a heart attack, you just need to eat healthier. And... are you really 110lbs?

Possibly a heart burn. Might I suggest Tums? However, I would check with your doctor before I take any medication. He/She can give you a through exam and tell you for sure what the medical problem is. Make an appointment to come in on Monday, and dont' wait any longer than that! It could be serious....

Take ECG and consult a Cardiologist.
Diabetes Type I, obesity, overweight, smoking, drinking, high cholesterol level in the blood, high blood pressure, etc have adverse impact on the heart and may lead to Heart attack even at an younger age.
Please see the webpages for more details on Unstable angina.

depending on how many of those energy drinks you are drinking, I have heard of a ten year old who had a heart attack..please stop drinkng those things, ..if you are abusing them..and tell mom and dad you want to go to the doctor. Don't be too mad at them, they just feel you are a picture of health, and find it hard to believe anything could be wrong with you..how many of those things do you drink? I would cut them out immediately.not trying to scare you...but they can do damage. Tell your parents of your concern..but if you are NOT overdoing it...tell them you want to go to the doctors to feel better...
