Since my usual, DubCharge, stopped selling vapes, I need a new site. Preferably one that cheap w discreet packaging lol. I still live w my parents and they’d kick me out if they saw I was buying. 🙏

I’m AFAB non binary, 19 years old, and recently (maybe two weeks ago) had what my doctor called an “episode”? All day I had been feeling a weird tightness in my chest. I sit at my desk most of the time doing online school, so it’s not like I was doing any vigorous exercise or anything to raise my heart rate. Around 4pm, I was pale, covered in sweat, breathing heavy, and my heart was racing, alongside the pain I’d had all day. My vision was blurry and I was dizzy. I have one of those finger heart monitors that you get at drug stores, and it was moving from 162 to 170bpm. I went to the ER, but the nurses said my heart rate wasn’t high enough for them to be concerned enough to test and that I was probably just stressed. The worst of my symptoms lasted about an hour before coming down a bit, but it took another dozen hours to completely stop the racing and tightness.

I’ve had palpitations and chest pain almost every day, both before and after this event, but I’ve never had this an event like this before. I had a doctor’s appointment a few days after the incident and my doctor said it was weird for someone like me to have all those symptoms, but decided not to have any follow up because it was only a one time thing. What could this have been? Is it fair that I feel like I’m not being taken seriously?
