What Causes Chest Pain While On Cocaine?
Hi,
I'd like to ask a question. I have been using cocaine for the past 6 months or so. First it was once a month, then once a week and then 1 gram every 5 days or so. Last 15 days I had chest pain. Sometimes dry strong. I went to the hospital. They did all the tests (yesterday) and they were normal. Blood tests, repeated blood tests after 2 hours, x-rays, blood pressure, temperature and electro things.. wit the stickers.. Don't know the name. Everything was normal and they send me home. I still have very light chest pain today. I read it will go away. What I do not understand is how serious this is. So, can I have a damage if I continue ? I threw away the coke in the toilet yesterday. Still I am afraid I might slip back into buying it. So, please give me some info... Also, what do I do to calm myself from the withdrawal symptoms ? Aspirin ? For the chest pain anything I can do ?

not take the cocaine!
even with toally normal heart and circulation, cocaine makes the vesels spasm and that can cause chest pain or even fatal heart attack.
there isn't much for the down and fatigue after cocaine use/withdrawal,
