Tightness around my heart
I'm five foot three inches tall and about four stone over weight, i've always carried a bit of weight.
Nothing has changed in my diet for the last two years and the only major change i've had lately is i had a baby ten weeks ago...
As of late, last four weeks, sometimes just out of the blue i get a tight feeling around my heart, it feels as though someone has my heart clasped between there hands and is squeezing it. I wasnt really conserned about it a si i just though it was a pull but it keeps happening more often. no other pains or aches experienced...anyone else getting this??
Answer:I work in the health field, but am no means a Dr. However, from my experiences I would first ask you if you have been eating a lot of spicy foods lately? If so, it's most likey heartburn. There is also GERD.
However, I would check the websites below for some comparisons of what you feel and the symptoms. WebMD is a great website for searching symptoms.
Good luck. Stay healthy!
no, but it sounds serious. you should see a doctor if you are concernd.
It could be gas or stress, you should see a doctor.
You should go see your doctor, it may be serious.
GET TO THE DOCTOR NOW! Don't take chances with your heart, girl.
You should really go to the hospital...I am not trying to scare you, but this happened to a friend of mine, and it turned out to be a mild heart attack. ...it might just be indigestion, and you didn't tell us how long it lasted..or how old you are..do you have heart problems in your family? I would tell you, to be on the safe side, to go check it out...you are probably fine, and it could also just be an anxiety attack...but with three little ones, you HAVE to take care of yourself now girl...so please, go and no more worrying about it...you don't have to have high blood pressure, and it is probably nothing...but always better to be safe than sorry okay darling mommy?
You need to let your doctor know so that they can do an EKG to see if there are any changes that may be causing this. I am a nurse and you might need a stress test or an Echocardiogram done. Do you have any shortness of breath with these episodes?? I could just be what they call costochondritis which is chest wall muscle strain and that might be caused since you are now picking up a little one and toting more things around.
It could be heartburn or acid reflux.. If Tums does not relieve it, go to the ER.
