Heart pain and headaches. Any connection?!


Question: Heart pain and headaches!. Any connection!?
I am almost 20 years old, (generally) fit and healthy but have had chronic daily headaches (whereby I have a headache everyday) for the last five years or so!. I take medication for them and they are largely fine and manageable!. The doctors can find nothing untoward and I accept that it is most likely just one of those things!.

I have had some, by no means regular, heart pain - they do not last long, maybe 10 seconds at the most, but it invariably causes me to clutch my hand to my chest!. I think they are palpitations and nothing to worry about, but an article I read somewhere (for the life of me I cannot remember where) got me thinking!. The article mentioned something about heart pain and headaches!. I used to be a keen sports player at school but since my headaches I do not play as ANY physical exertion causes my head to spin, I feel nauseous and I can hear my heart pounding away - even at the lightest jog!. I was wondering if too much exercise it perhaps too much for my heart and it gives me headaches, through, I don't know, lack of blood flow to the brain or something!? I ask as someone who doesn't really understand these things, so therefore I was wondering - even the slightest possible chance - whether these two things could have any connection whatsoever!?

Thanks!.

Answers:
Certainly, it is possible that there is connection!. There are several types of headaches, and one of them comes from muscle cramps in cranial arteries!. The heart is all muscle, so it could also experience a kind of transitory cramping!. All of this usually starts with electrolyte levels that are not normal!. The result is inflammation, which then brings on other problems!.

Stress is usually a trigger, but not necessarily the cause!. Lowering stress is always good to do, but not necessarily enough!.

You should have an ekg evaluated by a cardiologist, and follow any prescribed treatments!.

You really need to get a fully balanced nutritional supplement program!. It can help balance your electrolytes and also reduce inflammation!. Dr!. Ray Strand has had good results with many situations like yours!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I cannot tell you if your heart pain is connected to your headaches but you should go and check it out by a doctor!. My husband has been having heart pains and numb left arm, but luckily it was only because of anxiety!. Still, if your heart hurts go to the doc just to make sure your heart is ok!.

Could be a sign of stress!. Takes it easy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ahhh!.!.!.!.!.It could very well be a case of irregular heartbeat, or a palpitation!. When the heart contracts or lack their of it will feel like a ice pick is being driven into your chest very fast yet slow!. If you can understand that!. The heart is tricky due to numerous chemicals and electrical signals that interfere with one another!. Think of it this way if you heart misses a beat then it has to time it just right to continue to work and uses a larger electrical signal from your body to do so!. In a off beat heart it could mean that two chambers squeeze together to force Fluid in opposing directions!. Squeeze a water ballon in the middle and you will no what I mean!
