Please Help ... My heart feels like its skipping?
I really need some help please if you think you can help me read this ... I'll give points or whatever but I just need know if anyone know what this may be or what it IS!
Okay just to start off...I don't have insurence and I don't have money to see a dr and have test ran UNLESS I know it is something really bad. I don't want to die of some heart problem or by being in debt for the rest of my life with 2 children.
FACTS:
I am a 23 year old female. I have had two children. I am not over weight or in shape just where I should be. I may have one or two drinks a week (whisky and water).
The Details -
For about the past 8 months to a year my heart seems to feel as if it skips a beat. It only happens once or twice a month but when it does happen there is no warning, nothing hurts it just hits me at once and it happens so fast. WHen it does happen it takes my breath away.
Now this is something I noticed just yesterday. When I become nervous, very very mad or defenceive, scared or something like that ... my heart "skips" quite a few times and my chest becomes very sore ... its actually hard to explain exactly what it feels like. I just know I was driving and someone pulled out infront of me and I thought I was going to hit them ... now of course we have all felt that moment when it fells like your heart jumped out of your chest but this is more than that because it continues after the problem goes away. ... I am a very nervous person. I hate lots of people around and even when I have to speak to someone I dont know my chest seems to get sore.

I may not be any help, but just reading this- it seems as if you have a lack of confidence. You need to over come all your fears, even with people. The heart skipping is medical, and i'm sorry i can't help you with that, but do you know if you have a minor anxiety. This may lead to a lot of stress, which probably causes the heart to skip. I'm sorry i may not be any help, but hopefully you do get better financially, physically, emotionally and mentally. :)

im 13 and i had a heart problem the problem was that i had 2 bottle of starbuck frap on an empty stomache at night, and one in the morning on an empty stomach (i never drank coffe and i dont anymore!)
the doctor told me, it could be stress, or it could be something more seriously (b4 they found out what it was)
it lasted 1 week
when it happens dont think about it, cuz it started happening to me in a restaraunt and my parents sed they might need to call an ambulance, i got so scared i could get any air into my lungs (do not think about it, it makes it worse) i get these very bad heart pains sumx like sumone is diggin a knife in my hest and i cant breathe cuz it hurts, its been happening for about 1.5 years, and what i do is that i sit in a chair sit up strait and try not to think about it (the longest it lasted was liek 30 sec.)
I have not told anybody and i should :(
tell sum1 ur close to about this situation!
i hope u get better
and if u otice the prob worsening go to a doc. first call and ask how much it wioll be, if u cant find out if any of ur friends are docs so they can check u for free, if u really dont have the money ask a friend to pay, or tell the doc. that u dont have money to spare
hope i helped GET BETTER!
GOD BLESSS! remember always keep God first and you can overcome anything!
