What Causes Severe Pain In Chest Post Intake Of Energy Drinks?
I drank 3 red bulls last night with my jäger bombs. About 2-3 hours later I was laying in bed and I all of a sudden felt really overwhelmed, lost control of some of my body and I was hyperventilating. Found it really difficult to sleep. I woke up after about 4 hours and have not been able to get back since plus I have bad chest pain. Should I get this checked out?

Hi,
The amount of Red bull you had consumed is likely to cause caffeine over dose. This can cause chest pain by muscular spasm / hyper-acidity. In case you show vomiting. You need to see a physician to avoid further complications.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
