Can One Get Cardiac Ischemia At The Age Of 19 ?
Hi, I keep getting pins and needles up my left arm and sometimes, though rarely in my jaw. My left chest wall hurts as well during these instances. I'm a medical student and know that this is a typical sign of cardiac ischemia... I must add that I'm obese ... but I'm only 19. Is it is probably ishemia?

yes. its definitly psooble that a person can get cardiac ischemia at age of 19. chances are low as compare to old age, but many cases are noted in past that a person facing cardiac ischemia at very early age. you should go urgently to the emergency department. go for ECG. and then take treatment according to your all reports. but you need urgent intervention.
