do i have heart failure ?!


Question: Do i have heart failure ?
Hey im 17 ...

for about a year now i have been experiencing abnormal heart rate

it started out last year when i randomely got fast rapid heart beat before i sleep i got so scared i thought it was a heart attack...i have been getting these a few times and i got a few chills every know and them associated with them.

I have been scared to play sports , thinking i might get a heart attack... i feel alot of pressure in my chest and veins when i stand up and my head sometimes i played football abit but my heart beat fast so i was scared and stopped.... i always put my hand to check my pulse and it randomely sometimes rises and flutters and i get scared sometimes my heart beats so fast for 5-10 mins then goes back to normal..

when im standing up my heart beats heavy and hard and fast sometimes...even when im resting


i was wondering could it be heart failure ? or would i have been dead with no treatment if i actually got heart failure last year....

i also went on this roller coaster which spins very fast and you experience alot of g force in it many times


if i had heart failure i wouldnt have been able to survive it right ? ?

i really dont want it to be heart failure.... im so scared

sounds to me like you are having anxiety or panic attacks



Heart failure at your age is rare unless you have some sort of congenital heart disease.
If you are having fast heart rates that are interfering with your activities then you should see a doctor. He/she can figure out what is going on.
