my heart always acts wierd. As in, it's fucked up.

But it's not because of DDR.

If by "acting wierd" you mean 'beat real fast', then yes, it does act wierd.

Maybe your having cramps, I always get pains in my chest when I run when I haven't ran in a long time.

Hmmmmm well what happens after I played a stamina draining horrendous round. (I.E.My Max Run) my heart sometimes (or chest area) feels like it's going to explode or it just feels really heavy and I feel like I'm going to hurl dude, or something of that nature. I wonder if that's what he's talking about.

I believe that it's from dehydration.

I could be wrong on many things, but my only guesses it can be adrealine, heartburn, or maybe a irregular heartbeat.

Well, I'm talking the next day or two - I'll be sitting there and my heart will be okay and then it will POUNDPOUNDPOUNDPOUND normal.

I've had it happen before, I think when I was doing too much caffeine. I had a blackout in high school, and the doctor (I have a knack for getting Asian doctors who speak poor English and give useless advice) told me I had a very slight heart defect, but it's never been very noticeable. I figured somebody else had to be in the same boat. Were there any big problems, or is it just a bit scary/freaky?

keep playing ddr, it will help any heart problem you have. Good cardiovascular excersise is a great workout for making the heart stronger.

Do exactly what Sexfiend says, see a doctor.

Please don't die while playing DDR. Then it will get a bad image.

Easier said than done when you're a 26yo with no health insurance. :|

Ironically, I work for an insurance agency, but that's long and drawn out to explain, and may yet get resolved. But even so, pre-existing conditions? Nah...

You have several options:

1) Get it looked at by your doctor.
2) Ignore, and keep playing DDR.
3) Take into account, and play less intensely.
4) Be paranoid; halt all cardiovascular activities completely.

You said you're not getting it looked at by a doctor. So, basically, it's what it is to you. My heart flutters a lot, it makes me nearly pass out at times. I get dizzy and see stars if I do any cardio too intensely. But then, the LENGTH of time I play doesn't affect me-- only the intensity.

I'd go to a doctor. That said, they may say "We dunno WTF is wrong with you, here's your bill."

i have little faith in our health care system...
