Have high chlosterol causes a fatty deposit to clog up you're arteries therefore restricting the amount of blood that can pass through at any given time. This can cause clots which can lead to heart attacks, strokes & even death.
2 :
Our bodies cannot function without cholesterol, but where there is too much in the blood, the tendency is for it to be deposited as fatty plaque in the arteries which supply blood to vital organs like the heart and brain. When these organs are starved of sufficient blood as a result of the clogging of the arteries due to plaque, heart attack (cardio-vascular accident), stroke (cerebro-vascular accident) and many other complications follow. To find out more, wiki to cholesterol, or simply enter "cholesterol" in the yahoo search engine. If you are above a certain age, checking your cholesterol level regularly is a good idea

if it can wait a while, like more the a month, get all your and their money together and invest it *DO RESEARCH FIRST* and after that just wait till it grows, and as soon as it does, its better then nothing and sell it. short term, tell them to get a fiew jobs, and ask for help from the government, if htey have welfare allready, then thats a start. or they could do the surgury, and declare bankruptcy

Not necessarily. Maybe you should see a doctor. Maybe you just have an irregular heart beat. My mom has that and her chest hurts too.
2 :
Everyone who is anxious and stress experiences pain anywhere in the body , and the stress causes the muscles to tighten up , thus the experiencing of the sharp pain in the center of your chest. But also how old are you ? And have you completed your medical tests ? Please let us know.

The first thing I can tell you is to GO TO THE DOCTOR as soon as you possibly can. Don't rely on people who are not a certified doctor for your answer. You say you experience this sharp pain at the center of your chest when your anxious and stressful. Do you have a history of anxiety attacks? My sister suffers from anxiety attacks, she describes the feeling of having a heart attack when she goes through one. Stress and Anxiousness can cause stress related heart problems. Please seek professional medical advice as soon as possible.

Your Keyword-->>Stress.. Learn to deal with the stress you encounter and see if the pain recedes.. I'm 57-years old..and spend alot of time in my Apt.(seldom go outside).. Which creates alot of comfort.. SOOoooo...yes...living in a city causes stress,, I find its mostly tied to my digestion..and bowel movement.. I'll get a slight foot-cramp..and..yes..a slight sensation in my CHEST..some-what like a injury pain..but it actually seems to be a re-action on the nerves.. Over the years..I've associated the pain-like sensation as actually a numbness..contacting the surrounding muscles..(I'm solidly built).."so its like having a foot in the back".. ..or a mysteruois finger stuck in my ribs.. I've come to ignore this as a part of corruption and greed.. It does seem to be a nerve-numbness..affecting attaching tissues..[end]

A sharp pain in the center of your chest can be caused by acid reflux. This condition is aggravated by constant stress. Acid that splashes back up into your throat can cause your esophagus to spasm resulting in a sharp pain. The effect is as if someone has reached inside your chest and is squeezing real hard. If an antacid or drinking a cool glass of water temporarily relieves the pain then you know what it is. GERD, gastroesphageal reflux disease or simply a real bad case of heartburn. (which of course has nothing to do with the heart) Since your ECG tested normal then there is a good chance this is what your problem is. You may need treatment for it, so time to make an appointment with an otolaryngologist. (ear, nose and throat specialist
