Chest pains

So the other day I decided to drop two pokeballs at an event. It was my first time taking pokeballs but not my first time rolling. I felt fine after the first pill... then took the second one about 2 hours later.... and was fine for like 7+ hours. After about 7.5 hours of rolling hard my chest started to hurt... not very much at first... and then it kept getting worse till it got to the point that I thought I was having a heart attack and was going to die. It was very scary and it was the first time in my life that I have ever had such chest pain. I also had shortness of breath.

Any idea about why this happened? I kept hydrated... but maybe didn't take as many breaks as I should have, not sure really what it could have been. Oh and the chest pains continued for two days after rolling.
 
I had a couple cigarettes early in the night but that's it. Oh and it was my first time rolling after a one year hiatus.

This. You got some chest pains, then it sounds like you had a panic attack which made them worse. You simply pushed your mind and body too far.

No, it wasn't like that. It was a defined chest pain that kept getting worse till it plateaued and stayed at that intensity. It was not chest pains and THEN I got a panic attack... or so it didn't feel that way. Oh, and I've never had any panic attacks.. this would be a first.
 
Do you keep yourself fit? So many people forget that dancing around for 12 hours can be pretty tough and if your out of shape (or just not used to it) then you can over exert yourself. Pains in the chest could have been from pushing your body too hard.

When your raving you need to take regular breaks to cool down etc.
 
Can definitely be anxiety related...anxiety creates all sorts of physical sensations, especially things that mimic heart problems. It's always safe to get tests done to much sure there is nothing wrong.

For me it comes and goes...used to have a LOT of chest pain and palpitations on a daily basis. I'm 25 now but this started when I was maybe 21 or 22. Tests all came back normal. It has diminished a lot with time, and now I just ignore it. The muscles around the heart can actually contract and create the same sensation as if there was actual heart problems. Anyways, I wouldn't worry too much but you can always check it out. I would be skeptical of MDMA/dancing actually causing heart issues if there was not already a problem there in the first place.

I exercise every once in a while but I am extremely fit since I was a beast of a child ahahahah. No but seriously, my heart rate and blood pressure are optimal and fall into the athlete category. My BMI is also fairly good, 22. Oh and I eat pretty damn healthy.

I don't have much anxiety but I do have some and that might have been it... it was really uncalled for, I was having one hell of a time and all of a sudden it sprung on me. Another thing that might of been, I was having a really stressful time almost the entire week before dropping so maybe my heart was already under a lot of stress. Next time I'll try to take it easier on my body I guess....hopefully there has not been much damage done to the muscle. Next time i'll have to be extra cautious as I always drop in a rave setting. Oh and it wasn't for overuse as I space out my rolls by 3-6 months.
 
I get this when I take pokes, when you were rolling, did you feel as if your chest was trying to like leave your body? like your chest kept on pulling up? iono, i like it when i get that feeling, like a surge through your upper mid-section

No, unfortunately it wasn't like that and it was very scary and painful. Also, it's been a week since this incident and at night when I go to bed I still feel my chest hurt.. it's a weird sensation, sort of like a very strong inner burn, and if I acknowledge it and worry then it keeps getting worse, but if I ignore it and try to keep my mind busy it I no longer feel it.

The best thing that you could do is visit your doctor - omit the part about taking MDMA and just say you were running around messing about with friends and got a sharp pain in your chest etc

Let them give you a quick check over and put your mind at rest.

They will probably just put it down to pushing yourself too hard :)
