Open Question: What causes this? Panic attack or Heart?
Not all the time or even every day, but often enough, I get these “episodes” lol, that make my pulse speed up to 80-100bpm, my heart pounds hard, I get out of breath, weak and exhausted, and I hurt in my chest sometimes. Anyway, it was so bad last night that it was hard to talk, I couldn’t even move. When I tried to clean the living room all I could do was lay on the floor. It was so pathetic!!
Anyway, these happen no matter what I’m doing. Usually when I’m just relaxing it seems.
Since I have anxiety and depression, high cholesterol, steadily gaining weight, and have lots of other health problems, I don’t know which it is that could be happening. panic attack or heart problems?
Oh, heart disease is in the family, too. My dad, cousins, uncles. Grandpa died from heart attack, dad has heart disease, etc.

Open Question: There’s something wrong with my guinea pig!?
So he’s making these weird noises when he breathes and he hasn’t been eating. I can feel all his bones. He used to be really fat, well healthy fat. He’s very lethargic but he doesn’t always sleep.
He’s my very first guinea pig (I’ve had others but he’s the first one I ever got). I’ve had two guinea pigs die from heart murmurs, one die from kidney failure and one die from I don’t know what. I’m very scared.
Oh, and I think he’s three years old.
I already sent him to the vet and the vet said there was nothing wrong with him. His lungs were fine and such.
He also has an odd odor that I can’t tell what it is. I even gave him a bath two days ago.
He’s sitting right here and he looks like he’s dying. I’m serious. His eyes are half-closed and we don’t have enough money right now to take him to the vet.
He’s also having trouble moving. He doesn’t run away when I try to take him out of the cage like usual.
I also have three guinea pigs. This one and one other are in the same cage. So I don’t see how he’d be depressed.
I don’t know if this means anything to anyone but he’s also going gray and balding.
(by the way, I’m 14.)
His stomach has also been making these weird gurgling noises.
I’m sorry to announce that my baby died last night. RIP, sweetie, I love you.
