ive been experience sudden jabs of pain in
my heart over the past little while. its
almost like someone is grabbing ahold of
my heart and squeezing very tighly, or
like a sharp piercing pain. they only last
3-8 seconds on average but its impossible
to take a normal to deep breath during,
and its not just uncomfortable. i used to
take alot of drugs, ecstasy and cocaine (
although the latter very rarely ,while the
former being a almost everyday) i drink
maybe a cup of coffee every other day,
stress has been minimal since experiencing
these pains. ive quit drugs now for a few
months and still experience these pains.
should i be concerned about anything
serious or could this just the muscle
right under the heart and not acutally the
heart, i have heard that muscle can be
under alot of pressure and its normal.

The pain you are experiencing is called
Acute Angina. I have similar symptoms but
when I saw my doctor, he told me it was
due to high blood pressure.
