Lost Love Can Really Cause A Broken Heart

Lost Love Can Really Cause A Broken Heart

Do you remember loving someone that did not love you? Do you remember feeling like your heart was broken?. Well, the doctors have discovered recently that this is actually true!.

QUOTE
TRENTON, New Jersey (AP) -- Confirming the wisdom of the poets and philosophers, doctors say the sudden death of a loved one really can cause a broken heart.

In fact, they have dubbed the condition "broken heart syndrome."

In a study published just in time for Valentine's Day -- February 14 -- doctors reported how a tragic or shocking event can stun the heart and produce classic heart attack-like symptoms, including chest pain, shortness of breath and fluid in the lungs.

Unlike a heart attack, the condition is reversible. Patients often are hospitalized but typically recover within days after little more than bedrest and fluids and suffer no permanent damage to their hearts.

In their study, published in Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine, doctors at Johns Hopkins University gave a name to the condition, demonstrated through sophisticated heart tests how it differs from a heart attack, and offered an explanation for what causes it.

For centuries, doctors have known that emotional shocks can trigger heart attacks and sudden deaths. Broken heart syndrome, technically known as stress cardiomyopathy, is a different phenomenon...

Heart Broken Cause Really Love Lost

I wonder if as part of the study they included health brisk individuals or those that may have already been susceptible to heart attacks such as those that are sedentary, high cholesterol or the obese. I mention this because I would be interested in the rating a healthy individual would have if they experienced shock or in other words is it more about the physical or the mental. If mental, a person can be psychologically regimented into engaging their body in this way - in my opinion of course.

Lost Love Can Really Cause A Broken Heart Health & Special Psychology

From a personal experience I can tell that It is a physical pain for me when I have girl problems. One can say that is only sadness but I really do fell my heart different when I suffer from love (the thing is that the feeling is only love related and not present when other events are occure, even serious one like suffering of someone dear)

Heart Broken Cause Really Love Lost

I used to work with a woman who had a "heart attack" every year on the anniversary of her father's death (by heart attack). She would be hospitalized with chest pains, shortness of breath, etc., kept for observation for a day or two, and sent home. I witnessed this three years in a row, before I left that company.

That's decidedly psychological.

Heart Broken Cause Really Love Lost

When my boyfriend and I broke up in our teenage years, I felt physical pain. It seemed like my heart was beating harder than normal, and that's when I really became an insomniac. It just really did not feel right. Of course, a lot of people gave me that whole line of "You're a teenager, you don't know what true love is.." For the record, I am decidedly against that strereotype.

I started losing a lot of weight and was sick all the time. But things cleared up when we got back together. Six years down the road, anytime we have a fight, I feel sick to my stomach.

I definately believe it is possible to hvae physical symptoms over a psychological issue.

I have only ever heard of this once before, a friend of mine from years ago, his Grandma died, and around 2 weeks after, his Grandad died also. This was in the late 1960's, and on his death certificate the Doctor actually listed it as death from broken heart!
Tragedy and sorrow can affect us all in more ways than we actually believe they can, in my opinion.

That's very true. Actually you see it a lot in old couples who have been together for a very long time, when one of them die within months their spouse also dies, and is usually from a heart condition.
