Hello. I am only 16 years and this really worries me. One time I smoked weed, and it was a bad decision. I had a really bad reaction and my heart started pounding. I thought I was going to die. I know this is wrong, but please read.

To get to the main point of the story, two weeks later. I was going to bed, and I felt my heart beating abnormally hard. It worried me, and I couldnt sleep. I let it go on for a few days, and it would really pound hard sometimes. It seemed sometimes like it would pound more when I stood up, then sat down. I was scared, so I went to the doctor. The doctor told me its most likely anxiety, and to lay off on the caffeine. If that did not help it, then call back. I called back 3 weeks later, as it still did it. He scheduled me a cardiologist, and I went and visited her. At this point, it did it much less, but it still pounded. She told me it was also most likely anxiety, because my ekg or whatever looked good, and my heart sounded healthy. At the time, my blood pressure was somewhat high. It was around 130/80, which is high for somebody my age. She told me it was stress, because my grandfather had just died. She told me to just relax, and if it kept going on, call back. It kept going on, but not as bad. I hoped it would go away, but it didnt. I called for another doctors appointment, because my blood pressure might still be high.Sometimes I get chest pains, but there not too bad. I got it checked, and it was. It ranges from 130-150/80-90. It is somewhat high for a kid.


Now heres the question, could all of this be caused by high blood pressure? Or could this high blood pressure be due to something wrong with my heart. Could smoking have had something to do with it all, since it did somewhat start with that? Please help!
