A member asked:
Is it likely to have a heart attack at 20 from hiking up too fast. i pushed myself too hard, but ive had plenty of tests and i have health anxiety.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Health Anxiety: If you have been cleared medically, the chance of a heart attack is serenely unlikely. Anyone can have one and that remote possibility is what can snag our thoughts and feelings. Cognitive therapy can be helpful. Please see a clinical psychologist. A book called Feeling Good by David Burns is good for self-help. Peace and good health.
