What Symptoms Would You Expect The Patient To Have Considering He Is Not Getting Efficient Gas Exchange?
October 25th, 2009Why Am I Getting A Sharp Pain In My Upper Chest When I Breath And Work Out?
October 19th, 2009When I lift weights and work out I get this sharp pain in my chest especially during dips and other exercises that stress the chest. Even when not working out, I get the pain when I breath in deeply. The pain is more towards the right side of my body and it is pretty deep into the chest. I’m not sure if I’m getting this from a certain exercise that I have done or if it from something else.

Why Does My Chest Feel Heavy And I Am Getting A Pain In My Left Shoulder? I Am Only 27?
September 26th, 2009I am only 27 and having the symptoms of a heart attack??? For over a year now every now and then I get this tight feeling in my chest and sometimes a pain in my left shoulder. I feel nautious and have very shallow breathing. The main symptom is the uncomfortable tightness of my chest. I have used my inhaler on several occasions thinking this is my asthma coming back and it does nothing to help the discomfort. Everytime it happens it lasts for a longer period of time. I am able to be active when it happens but it seems to suck all of my energy out of me. I am on several different medications which I have been taking for over 3 years. At 1st I thought this was an allergic reaction but when it happened yesterday I had just gotten off work, ate nothing, drank water and was relaxing and watching a movie. I looked it up on the internet and basically my symptoms are those of a heart attack. Also been experiencing “restless leg synd.” in arms and legs, mostly in arms???? Help!!!!!

Please Help? My Symptoms Are Getting Worse. Anxiety, Insomnia, Nightmares, Rashes, Chest Pain…?
September 22nd, 2009I’m a 30yr old female, had insomnia and nightmares when I was a little girl, but it came back.
Anxiety was diagnosed a year ago, xanax prescribed after I went on a “mental holiday”, temazapam prescribed for nightmares and insomnia, exercise and less caffeine was suggested but hasn’t helped at all. I regularly go up to 50 hours without any sleep.
I’m hypersensitive to everything and embarrassingly jumpy, and according to my fella now I talk incessantly and seem to be erratic at times. I’m always thirsty
My vision is blurry. I’ve got rashes that appear all over me and I scratch till the skin comes off, mostly in my sleep.
Im woken by the smallest noise and cant go back to sleep even with medication.
When I’m laying down my legs are ridiculously itchy, like somethings crawlin under my skin. My body twitches almost violently until I nod off. I’m asthmatic and sometimes wake up feeling like I’m takin my first breath in hours.
And for 3 weeks I’ve bled on and off. My doctor is vague.

Question Here- Why Do People When They Are Getting Severe Chest Pains And Life Threatning Symptoms?
September 13th, 2009get on here and ask questions instead of going straight to the emergency room and seeing a doctor? Because with a heart attack every second counts right? My uncle and granddad died of a bloodclot to their heats. But they had no warning signs. So I need to know why do they get on here if they are that concerned for their life that they might be having a heart attack etc than getting to a hospital that will treat them if something is wrong.It could take about 20 minutes of more to get an answer on here, and only less than 5 minutes to die. I do not get it. Any reasons for that?
