very skinny boy with chest pains and breathing problems Posted: 01-19-08 14:34pm
I am 17 yrs old, a boy, i am very skinny
like 110 - 120 last time i got a check up,
im like 5' 8' tall, i think i got heart
problems.The problems started when i was
15 i think it was all the junkfood i eat.I
would get sudden flashes of pain like
thunder i would just crouch and breath
slowly and it would go away it felt like
stabs.When i turned 16 one night i woke up
with extreme pain by the heart area every
movement, every deep breath, would hurt i
was gonna wake parents up but felt bad so
i slowly made my way to the living room
and sat down i prayed to god to forgive me
for the bad i thought i was gonna die but
i slept sitting down the next day i went
to the doctor she said it was acid reflux
and gave me pills that worked for a while.
Now im 17 sometimes i take deep breaths
and below my right rib next to the stomach
i get a feeling like something in me is
getting twisted and i just curl up and
breath slowly then it goes away,also my
heart feels very week and sometimes i feel
pains like my heart hurts, i have trouble
breathing like its hard to like i got
pressure on my chest, my legs fall asleep
alot,and im always tired sleepy lazzy
weak,most recently i felt a very funny
feeling in my heart like trapped air or
something wiggling in it or pulling it out
of my body i couldnt find a comftarbles
position to sleep or sit or anythin it
llasted like 2 weeks.
about me i havent ate vegetables or fruits
since i was 5, i love junkfood and all
restaurants, i dont exersice, i havent
played sports since i was 12
and when i do play soccer i last 10 to 20
minutes before i have to stop and gasp for
air and start coughing, and i like staying
up at night and dawn and sleep morning and
day i think i got insomnia.

I'd have to agree...it sounds like you've
got a big case of indigestion going on.
You can always test your heart with a
"Stress test" to scientifically identify
abnormalities. A cardiologist can perform
this, if you want to check it out.
But eat your vegetables!!!

I am also 17 (well, 18 tomorrow!) and I am
also pretty skinny. 5'11" and 130, but I
have a pretty good diet. I eat pretty much
exclusively beans, rice, and vegetables. I
drink a whole lot of milk. I have the same
pain you are describing, and I also have
insomnia, have since I was a child. My
mother has hyperthyroidism, could this be
why I am so skinny? I don't have problems
with feeling weak really.

yeah, but I already do only eat vegetables
and fruit already. I'm a vegetarian, and I
eat a lot of both, I'd say I have a
healthy diet. I also take vitamins.
