What Does Recurring Pain In Heart, Inability To Move With Breathing Difficulty Mean?

Hi,
I am a 19 year old male, with near perfect health(never broken a bone, been diagnosed with a disease, had any real problems), but twice in the last two years, I have experienced extreme heart pains that disable my ability to move, inhibit my ability to breathe, and are, as I said, extremely painful. Any idea as to why this may be?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Sudden onset chest pain with breathing difficulty should be first evaluated for heart diseases.
So get done ecg, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test).
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
In teenagers, stress and anxiety can also cause similar symptoms.
So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions.
Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution.
You may need anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, you will be alright but first rule out heart diseases.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
