I am new to heart trouble. Lately I have noticed that on hot humid days it feels like the air is very thick. I sweat profusely with very little activity.
I am also very tired most of the time. Especially in my legs.
I also experience a heavy sick feeling in my chest that will last from 15 minutes to a couple hours.
And the summer heat is only beginning. I'm concerned this is only going to get worse.
Has anybody experienced this too?
I'm maybe 20lbs overweight, but otherwise in good physical shape. At least I used to be before this all began in February. I'm 40 years old.

I also do not do well in the heat and humidity. I feel pretty good in the winter, spring and fall but summers are really tough. I try to get up early and get everything I did to do before 0900. I used the car a/c and stay in the a/c throughout the day. I walk everyday in the cooler weather but I just don't have the energy when the H & H hits.
