What causes women to experience broken-heart syndrome?

[@markh4926]

I think most men don't report the problem, they go to a bar. I experienced this twice in my life and the second time was far worse than the first. Wife disappeared one day and never returned home. The doctors would not check for broken heart but would do every other test. Finally after 6 months the problem began to go away except I'm still short of breath and doctors won't listen.

whoknows k, this made no sense. She can’t just ‘leave’. She’s in a legal marriage contract. She’s by law required to be married to you.

[@markh4926]

@@mikenelson8377 That doesn't change the fact that she isn't here. We're divorced now.

[@veronicachristopher9321]

Your first sentence is truer than true. Women face pain; men get over it quick by drinking it away.

A doctor can fix a body....their is no cure for a broken heart and it slowly breaks you down till you give up and your health starts to get worse which ultimately ends with your life

[@dziany_forsacze]

Heart is an muscle, the "broken heart" is related to our emotions. Emotions come from the brain, it's a chemical reaction. It affects other organs in our body as well, but it is rooted in our psyche not physique. Dr. Reynolds please continue..

[@TwistedSecrets777]

Hey Shty something you are forgetting is your heart is part of your body and broken heart syndrome effects the entire body it breaks you down to where you simply dont care anymore your health gets worse and it leads to death....and your heart is the last thing that beats when your body dies till it shuts off for good

[@dziany_forsacze]

@@TwistedSecrets777 thank you for proving my thesis. We neglect our healthy habits due to lost of control over our mental state malfunction. Our mind, generates data, commands and voltage of our entire body. This is to the fact that in last hours, our prehistoric life-sustaining mind feeds the brain even at cost of the heart muscle tissue.

I had this twice once when a friend committed suicide the other when I experienced extreme pain during a spinal epidural injection I went into heart failure twice because of it. Both times my blood work and EKG showed I was having a heart attack. From what I know it is caused by a sudden release of stress hormones that stun the ventricles of the heart and cause problems for blood to be pumped through the body and back to the heart. Even though they say you can completely recover from some people it has lasting effects.

The arteries are open. My heart torn badly when my dad died. ❤Christ helped me not to die and overcome this sadness. Heart has its own memory. Brain gets confused. But heart knows and feels it and can not speak it. Its a real deal. ❤

[@davidcoleyart5526]

This took my mother's life, a week after her brother killed himself. Stay emotionally healthy yall. God loves you. It's all part of the plan.

❤❤ sorry 2 hear that😫

[@KOOLBadger]

I have it too. And my bestie just died to I am so afraid it will happen again..🥺😭😭😭😭😭

[@jean-baptistedupont5967]

My suggestions for your next medical studies: - "fatigue syndrome" that you have after getting up - "panic syndrome" before writing a test - "advanced starvation syndrome" after not eating for a few hours - "doomsday syndrome" after watching too much MSM - "death syndrome", surprisingly happening to all living things

[@TwistedSecrets777]

This stuff will be the end of me because i do not believe women want us good men anymore....and giving up hurts so much

[@alishawalls943]

I had but my heart healed.it actually hurts on incuden and feels like it is being torn muscle and pain like elephant on back as heart feels pulled apart ripped apart.i still healed and love all God's creation of men forever.

[@alishawalls943]

My aunt died of it.It is real.

[@KOOLBadger]

DOC, YOU ARE WRONG ABOUT IT GOING AWAY ON ITS OWN! WHY WOULD YOU GIVE MISINFORMATION? I HAVE IT REALLY BAD! HAD TWO EPISODES AND MY BESTIE JUST DIED. MY CHEST IS HURTING ME SO I GOTTA GO IN! I HAVE HAD TWO EPISODES IN TWO YEARS. THIS NEXT ONE, I WILL MOST CERTAINLY DIE!

[@twostepsbackwards4992]

You might have developed cardiophobia on top that sends you on a loop of panico attacks from the fear of death..It’s a nightmare but it’s crucial to do acceptance practice to get out the loop fear and you’ll see the symptoms come down. It can go away if this and the things that worry you are addressed and you tell yourself that they are not worth your pain. The mind can reverse the same thing it caused and our body is stronger that’s we think. It’s not false information, it’s crucial to understand how big of a difference we can make in our destiny. It’s real but not like a genetic predisposition that one would have regardless of how they feel.

[@twostepsbackwards4992]

Also don’t write scary things in caps lock, this is the type of messages that trap people down a spiral of fear that feeds the condition. Look up panic disorder

[@twostepsbackwards4992]

So what’s the difference between this and panic attacks?

[@thoughtsonredbudhill]

I want to know too.

The fact that you have some people on this thread who believes in this crap is really bothersome.

[@onceuponacrime9307]

I was painting my ceiling and ended up in hospital for a week diagnosed with this condition it presented as a heart attack problems breathing sharp & excruciating pain across my shoulders. After MRI scans, blood tests & examinations over the week this came back as Takotsubo cardiomopathy the medical term for this. The heart changed shape & compressed causing the symptoms. I'm on lifelong tablets now - I can forward my medical records to you. True Story. Don't be bothered now anymore. :) This is just very very bad journalism,

[@TheMightyBlackPearl]

@Once upon a Crime I hope you are doing better. I just received my diagnosis in the fall. I just turned 31..They're totally wrong about the ages it can affect. You're right, bad journalism.
