Hi, I'm 18. Anyone who's a doctor please help

Hi, I've read up on the systoms of Atrial Fibrillation and feel they match what I'm going through now. This is my third time feeling the chronic symptoms in the past two weeks.
Cramps in the chest area near the heart was also experienced last year in April for numerous times. Visits to hospitals and doing both the treadmill and 2D-echo tests proved I am totally healthy.
I'm currently feeling very frustrated because doctors appear very sceptic of my situation due to my relatively young age. Furthermore, palpitations, irregular heart beat, shortness of breath and chest discomfort i experience are chronic, lasting about 5-10 seconds each time, and hence will not be detectable by a ECG test it seems.
I feel exhaustingly dizzy very time I do sprints due to my heart beat increasing very rapidly within a few seconds. I only manage to last at most about 20 minutes in a soccer match. However, I'm totally fine with long distances and have the ability to pass fitness tests. So I do not reckon the cause to be lack of fitness.
I am not sure if all these symptoms are life threatening, but currently everyone seems to assume that I'm just over suspicious and take my complains as a pinch of salt. Furthermore, I'll be enlisting as a fully healthy recruit soon. I feel a lack of support and seriously need someone who understands to advise me on what to do. Thank You. -
It seems very unlikely that your case should be Atrial Fibrillation. One thing you should understand is that clinic symptoms can sometimes be rather brief and general things.. That's why you need diagnostic test... What your doctors have recommended are more than enough to cover Atrial Fibrillation alone... IN FACT, they have also taken the EXTRA CARE to rule out some of the OTHER possibly related diseases...Originally posted by Sandistur:Hi, I've read up on the systoms of Atrial Fibrillation and feel they match what I'm going through now.

If you still have much doubt about your condition, what I would personally suggest to you is to stop suspecting yuorself to be a Atrial Fibrillation case. Go to a general doctor and perhaps get you to see specialist from another area rather than thinking that it's chronic.
In any case, pls feel free to refer to the forum recommended above. -
try going to a different hospital for a second opinion.

I think i have a few symptoms quite like yours..
The thing is it strikes out of nowhere... esp when i'm relaxed... my heart will start beating fast for no reason.. And sometimes my heart will start to hurt..(i'm sure its not a heartbreak thing)..
I told the doctor about it but the doctor told me to tell my camp MO when i'm having it..
Well. That's what you should do. Everytime you feel that you can't go on in BMT anymore... just voice out to your sgt/pc. In fact, raise it out to yr sgt once you know which school and company you'll be going.
They'll keep a lookout for you.
You'll be fine.. don't worry so much. -
i seriously don't think tat u have AF. coz AF need to be shock.

Atrial Fibrillation is not something that pops up in anyone's mind in a flash, normal people doesn't even know such term existed. So it's lucky of you to know what you could be having.Originally posted by Sandistur:Hi, I've read up on the systoms of Atrial Fibrillation and feel they match what I'm going through now.

Cramps happen when you're not having enough sodium in your daily dietary intake. And you're stressed over something that has been troubling you. Are you having enough rest? Been sleeping well?
Rest more and make sure that your head is rested well against your pillow as incorrect head posture during sleeping could deny sufficient oxygen supply to your brain, muscle, internals. You may not feel the difference until you feel that you're waking up feeling more tired than yesterday and you never got rid of the tiredness no matter how long you've slept. Also remember to drink sufficient plain water daily. And walk more daily if you want to feel better.
Don't worry about the enlistment issue <- Is this troubling you?
Good luck. -
