Today I had this really frightening experience. I nearly fainted when I reached orgasm after masturbating. It's hard to describe the experience. I felt somewhat light-headed, but most notably, I felt my heart pounding very hard against my chest way too fast, and felt like I was dying. My hands and feet were getting colder and colder, and felt numb. I didn't lose balance, didn't experience any pain.
Now I know there are people who hold their breath during masturbation and then pass out, but I was doing pretty much the opposite. After a few minutes of hyperventilation all of it was over again and I felt like normal, except for the fact that my limbs were still ice cold.
I've heard of people passing out after orgasm, but I don't know how serious it is. In general, I seem to be a healthy person. I have had a few frightening experiences before, like almost passing out after exercising. I also tend to get this pounding in the back of my head if I go exercising just after I get up. Recently I haven't had really good sleep (average 6-7 hours a night).
Nevertheless, I've been to my GP a couple of times this year, and according to her, everything is fine. I had my blood pressure checked (I can't remember it anymore, but I was OK according to my GP), my GP has listened to my heart, I've had a blood test (though for other symptoms (fatigue, etc.)) and all the results were good according to the doctor.
But the symptoms continued returning (including chest pain, difficulty breathing, etc.) and I went back once more. My blood pressure was alright and my hearts and lungs sounded alright, and the doctor basically told me I should stop worrying, that the symptoms were the result of fear, and that she couldn't imagine a 15-year-old having serious cardiovascular disease.
So I haven't been to the doctor for months, though I still occasionally experienced frightening symptoms, though nothing new. So I'm am a sort of indecisive... I almost know for sure if I go to my GP she'll say check the same things again and tell my everything is alright. In fact, I think she might even be somewhat fed up seeing me so often for the same symptoms. But on the other hand, I do continue to experience these worrying symptoms.
Any ideas? What would you do?
