Can heartache kill me. meaning how broken hearted can i get until there's a danger of having a heart attack ( broken heart syndrome). i'm seriously concerned for my physical health?

Broken heart syndrome will not kill you. It would be prudent to see your doctor to see if you may be depressed. Depression is treatable. Counter-intuitive as it may seem, exercise may help. Start with low intensity exercise such as walking and gradually increase the intensity as tolerated. Drink more water. Wish you good health!
