I used to get that - was due to an iron deficiency. Iron helps get oxygen around through your blood, so by having none you starve your organs of oxygen. I'd feel like I was having a heart attack, my throat would close over, and I would start seeing stars.

Go see a doctor.

Well I am Anemic (low red blood cells) so I guess that could be part of it.

Never really put the 2 together as I used to play a lot of footy and cricket at a decent level and never felt symptoms like this.

Thanks for the info.

I was playing basketball 6 nights a week and would finish half te games thinking I was dying. Kept getting tested for asthma because I couldn't breathe while playing, but had full lung capacity, so it wasn't that.

For me it comes back on occasion when I stop eating properly. Maybe you need to adjust your diet to suit, or go back on iron tablets.

I don't complain about iron. It's a legitimate deficiency for me, but I see no reason to whinge. Even when it was at its worst, I'd sit on the bench for 5 min then get on with the game. I have it, I've dealt with it appropriately, and I get te f*ck on with my life.
