Ok, so I'm a 20 year old male and I play basketball a lot, probably 3-5 times a week. It seems about every time i play that i get light headed and fatigued, though on some occasions i get EXTREMELY light headed and feel as if i'm in another world. i've researched this, and many heart problems have come up in my search..and i'm wondering if ishould get checked out? it's not like i'm out of shape; i'm 5'11 158 and i exercise, eat healthy, etc. i just dont want to die, thanks

Try...
I think it'll be best to consult a doctor, try talking with your family as they might have more knowledge and experienced. Maybe it's the way you play rough but what do I know I'm barely 13 Razz

My chest hurt after drinking caffeine so I e-mailed my doctor. I told him what I'm feeling and he explained to me well. If you do that it's garenteed to make you feel less worried.

Thanks, I hope you feel better,
Jeremy
