Default great, there is something wrong with me

well... a few people know that a few weeks ago my dad had heart surgery to replace a valve in his heart that was malfunctioning. He is recovering great, but slowly. About 2 weeks ago i went to my doctor for a routine physical so i could participate in school sports. My doctor found a heart murmur, which is what my dad originally had, so that got me worried, who wouldnt be. But my doctor told me that it was very common for childeren to have heart murmur's. Well, today i am surfing the net during study hall *right now* and i search for heart murmurs. I find out that the heart murmur's are common in 2 - 4 year olds! and last time i checked, im 15. so now im freaked. i am schedualed for a EKG on november 20th and i found this out...
Quote:
Some heart murmurs may indicate a problem with the heart. If your child's doctor suspects something other than an innocent heart murmur, he or she will refer your child to a pediatric cardiologist, who will order or perform additional tests such as a chest X-ray, an EKG (an electrocardiogram), or an echocardiogram.
oh yeah, thats great to know
and today, my chest has been hurting and i feel like crap
is this cause for alarm?

HELP!

hmmm damn thats some scary sh** LD. I thought I had heart murmurs, but the docs keep saying it was acid refluxs, so I changed my diet, no more worries now. (wow, bad grammar) But if the doc says that you have hear murmurs and he says your ok, then I wouldnt worry too much. He did go to college for 8+ years, so hopefully he knows whats hes talking about. You could get a second opinion from another doc. Hope that EKG comes back saying your fine.

6 more days till HELL, I mean boot camp

Probably not. You think it hurts. Its actually in your mind, probably. You can convince yourdelf of alot of bodily ailments...that doesnt make them true. I had cancer throughout the last half of 5th grade....in my fucking MIND. Trust me, you are almost certain to be okay.


So...it could be bad in the end, but its no sucking chest wound.
