pain in my heart!
    #7020250 -

I'm 22 year old male and about 100 pounds overweight and I smoke cigarettes(10 a day average)

I was walking home today and it was basically flat ground except for a few slopes and I had a pain in my heart the whole time, especially when I breathed in....

This is awful isn't it!?

I could die soon if I don't take drastic action....I have satrted a diet last week and I'm trying to quit cigs again as of now.

Angina runs in the family on my dads side....you think it could be that? or just the fact that i'm a disgustingly unhealthy person?

I'm 21 and I get that pain once in a blue moon. It's like a stabbing pain in your chest but only when you inhale, right? Sometimes it's like ripping off a band-aid; you just gotta take a nice deep breath and it'll work itself out.

Probably a combination of all the above. Before everything else, I say quit the cigs. You'll notice respiration improve dramatically in no time..

I'm 6' 1 and about 245ish so I'm flabby, nothing too crazy.  I'm not in crazy shape but the pains don't feel serious, just annoying.  It's like, let me take a fucking breath! :crankey: :lol: 

I smoke the occasional  cig, I'm quite fond of the bottle (the brown and green ones) and I'll pop the occasional benzos.

I second quitting cigs.  I'm not addicted, only when i drink :lol:  When you're free  from nicotine addiction it's like whole clearer life.  You just have such a higher self-esteem.

Can't beleive I had that filthy habit for so long now... :mad2:

I will quit without nicotine replacement....

I went to a doc and got some free nicotinell lozenges and it was like a mushy mint with chemical taste in my mouth!!! yuck, and it didn't help me quit either.

I know I can do it if I commit to it.

You might be having an episode of your family's dreaded angina (aka "myocardial infarction"). Your heart is not getting enough oxygen from its own network of veins and capillaries. Like any other muscle with oxygen deprivation, it will react with pain.

Try breathing deeply next time, calmly and slowly, and see if that helps. Breath this way until the tips of your fingers start to tingle slightly (that way you know you're getting a lot of oxygen in your blood) and if it abates, you have a good clue about what might be going on.

As with any type of cardiac issue, get to a Doctor and describe your symptoms. I don't think that an episode of this is fatal, but I do believe it's cumulative so you don't want to be experiencing too many of these episodes at any age, particularly if you are young and vital.

Get yourself checked by a pro-fessional, Dude.

You'll be alright, hypochondriac!  :smirk:

Yeah, quit the stoges and start losing the weight.  I weighed 240 my senior year in high school, and got down to 165 by my sophomore year (too skinny for my frame), however it did wonders for my health, especially my mental health aka confidence and esteem.

I'm back up to 215 now and could definitely use to trim the gut, but I have it under control for now.  Food is too damn delicious to do anything drastic.  I did play one game of basketball at the gym the other day, and almost passed out in the lockerroom after.  Severe headaches, breathing heavy. 

I smoke a pack a day.  Quit when you're ready.

i've never smoked o cig in my life but i do know that if you quit your going to need something to do with your hands to fill that void that not smoking will leave behind. try not to fill it with eating buddy. ive known people that quite smoking and put the weight on. best of luck though brother losing weight is a bitch but it can be done. whats really helped for me is keeping a food journal it really helps

I haven't put weight on at all in 7 months since quitting or needed to do anything with my hands. Just comes down to the individual I suppose!

about 100 pounds overweigh


*Gives you a crushing brotherly hug*
I could stand to lose 100lbs also. I know what you're going through.
I'm 320 lbs so to turn me into a lean mean diet machine I could stand to lose 150 lbs even.

250lbs would be a good weight for me. Not because I'm easily pleased, but because I love to be huge. It is me.

Love yourself, the monumental task awaiting you (losing a couple dozen pounds) can only succeed if you accept yourself like you are. Disgust is a matter of the eye of the beholder. You are simply you, in an unhealthy form. Disgust at your obesity will not motivate you: it will on the contrary sabotage your efforts from the inside and keep you unhappy every step of the way. And that's when you eat the worst foods right? When you feel unhappy in some way or the other. All you get from kicking yourself is a well-trained leg and a sore butt. Change only comes from action, not regret.

This might have been your lungs, or it might have been your heart. Given your obesity at an early age and risk factors in the family, have yourself checked out in the hospital. Let them put you on a stationary bike with electrocardiogram and see to how many joules you can get.

I had my first confirmed heart attack at age 30. Hereditary factors worked that miracle for me :frown:
I think I had 3 or so more in the years preceding that I didn't go to a doctor with. I had hundreds of angina attacks in those years.
My health is so much better now. In the years since that fateful night of December 27 2002 I never had an angina attack up to the severity that I had weekly in the years preceding. Drugs and lifestyle changes made that happen.

Don't gamble on your health. Love yourself. Go see a doctor and start working at turning your life around to where you want to be.

As long as you live the life you live it doesn't matter whether you live to age 20 or age 120. All that matters is that you are true to yourself and live by it.

Hey man first thing i reconmend is to contact your doctor and devise a fitness plan...i dont reconmend eat dietary foods until you at least lose 35 pounds unless its slim fast infact ill give you my diet...i went from 287 yo 258 in about 2 or 3 mounths...i never look big but i was in bad shape...anyway pick up so slim fast or some along those lines then start your day with one of those for breakfest and nothing less then fix a big plat of at least mildly health foods and eat alittle bit through out the day so the those are the only two things you are eating. also try to do as much carteyo as you can at once even if its just sticking your arms out and making little slowly moving cicrles and do it until u get tired you dont have to feel the burn when you first start but you should do it until you are tired then wait a while and do it again...it really suck at first but my high matablize diet combined with exersize should help you get in shape until you can talk to your doctor

actual body weight is not the issue, it's just the fat to muscle ratio. I'm 6' even and 240 but I'm in very good health. I really do suggest quitting the cigs. and something of that issue should be cnsulted with a doctor. Any pain that lasts for minutes long like that should be taken serious and consulted with a doctor.


And next time you wanna smoke just put the pack or cig down, and wait one minute (make it a rule) and think to yourself what's moe important that one cig or a healthy life? Do it seriously.... don't cheat... hope any of this helps
