3 years ago, I thought I was having a heart attack and went to the ER. Fortunately, it was just a bad muscle strain, but that apparently wasn't much of a wake up call to me. Even though I was 26, severely overweight, had a poor diet and was smoking 2 packs of cigarettes a day...

3 months ago, my doctor noticed an irregular heartbeat. That did it. I quit smoking less than a week later cold turkey, I exercise 30 minutes a day and I'm trying to eat better. And the funny thing is...the irregular heartbeat was most likely caused by the allergy medicine I was taking--the cardiologist I went to found nothing.
