Yeah, that's why I said "my bad advice."

UCB is under tremendous strain right now, just read his post, and internalizing it and not being sure or doing meditation without talking to a medical professional is actually dangerous as hell.
Yeah, I said seeing a professional isn't a bad idea. I just thought it unnecessarily added to his worries for you to start theorizing that he was having heart trouble. Dude is grieving and stressed out - we don't need to plant the seed in his mind that he could have a heart attack based on basically no information whatsoever.

I mean, if that was your concern, you could have said a general 'see a doctor - could be grief, could be stress, could be something else.' To specify a specific problem in the most important organ of your body on top of everything else seems counter-productive to helping somebody lower their stress.
