Okay this is the second time this has
happened, each time during sex.
Each time, I get really hot, and my heart
beats really fast. Then at some point my
lips and/or face starts to get tingly and
numb, as well as my arms sometimes.
I suspect it 'might' be the early onset of
a heart-attack? I'm not fit, and my diet
isn't that great either, plus I used to
smoke, I gave up a few months ago. I'm
not fat though (i'm 6'2" and 87 kilos),
but i'm not toned either. I'm also 23
years old.
I haven't been with many girls, I won't
lie, I do get nervous. I can't help but
think maybe if I wasn't that way my heart
wouldn't beat as ridiculously fast as it
does and I wouldn't get the tingly
numbness?
Can anyone tell me what they think it
could be? Maybe a heart problem?
Could you also recommend a drug that
relaxes me without losing my erection?

Wow... That certainly is extreme! If
you're not overweight and you're young and
have no heart problems, I very much doubt
you're gonna get a heart attack! It
sounds to me like you're just
inexperienced, and I mean that in the
sense that you are just really really
nervous and it is manifesting itself in
this physical way.
If you havent been with any or many girls
then it's probably coming as a shock to
your body and your head, and your blood is
flowing like crazy! I remember the first
time I had sex all of my arms and hands
went numb. Completely paralysed, I
couldnt move them at all. It's never
happened since.
You need to take the pressure off
yourself, take things very slow and relax!
If you need to, just take things one step
at a time, lie down, focus on just
touching or something, don't just jump
straight in. If you feel yourself
getting panicky or out of breath then
don't feel pressurised to keep going.
Take a step back and try again another
time. Build it up slowly. The girl
should understand, and if she doesnt, sod
her!
Hope this helps, and if it's still no
better see someone about it, but i'm sure
it'll settle down if you just take the
pace down a notch and relax.

well I didn't say I didn't have any heart
problems. I have no heart problems that
I know
of. I did smoke for a while, but
like I said I quit a few months ago. And
my diet isn't exactly healthy either.
With no one to cook my healthy dinners,
and working night-shifts, I usually end up
getting take-out or delivery.
My arms didn't go completely paralysed
either, I could still move them. They
were just tingly and numb. It was also
intermittent. Sometimes it went away,
sometimes it came back, sometimes just in
my face.

Well, you're saying you think it's heart
related, but does it happen any other time
other than during sexual activity? I
think you're overworrying!
If you really fear this is heart connected
then you need to see a doctor for advice,
and you need to take steps towards a
healthier lifestyle. It's not as
difficult as you think. Stab a raw
potato, stick it in the microwave for 8
mins, you have a cooked potato. Throw
some baked beans on top, stick on a packet
of 2 min microwaveable vegetables. Voila
you have a meal that probably takes less
time than it does to wait on your
delivery, and is about 10 times healthier.
Everyone has time for that!! Stay off
the people and maybe do a bit more gentle
exercise like walking when you get the
time.

It has actually happened once
long ago when I wasn't having sex. It was
during summer which can get really hot in
australia. I don't have air-con so all I
had was a fan in my room. I think I was
trying to sleep when it happened, my face
started to get tingly and numb, and hands
were shaky and I think I might have had
some tingly numbness in my arms as well.
I've ruled out heat stroke because none of
the symptoms fit.
I don't smoke anymore, and I do walk, I
walk a lot. I don't have a car
(never had have one) and I have to use
public transportation. Just starting to
learn how to drive now actually.
I think I will see my doctor, I thought
there might be some on here though.
