My father woke up on his 65th birthday having a massive heart attack from 50 years of smoking.  Guess what?  He couldn't smoke in the CCU and when he got out he never touched another cigarette (thank God!)  He just turned 70 in May and he's doing very well.  It's never too late to quit!!!

I am in the medical field and know that doctors like to start checking that around age 35-40....earlier if prostate problems run in your family.  I have seen patients that were nearly saints (didn't smoke, drink, weren't obese, ate healthy), and sometimes it just DOESN'T matter.  Instilling a healthy lifestyle is excellent, but doesn't neccesarily safeguard you against a particular illness or ailment.  I don't want to scare you with that, but it's the truth.  Alot of people believe that as long as they incorporate a healthy lifestyle that everything will be fine and it couldn't be more wrong.  Our gene pool, the enviroment we live in today (air, pollution), along with reasons of "just cause" affects our health.  So yes yes yes, go get your exam done!!  If prostate problems DO run in your family, your doctor will do a PSA (prostate specific antigen) blood test and check your levels there also.  Hope it all turns out awesome for you and hope this advice helped!!!!!

Here's a small list:\n\na. Smoking (of any kind- ciggs, sheesha, weed, etc)\nb. Obesity\nc. Alcohol consumption\nd. Family history of cardiac problems or if you have a diagnosed heart problem\n\nPlease note that the above mentioned risks (except d.) decrease considerably once you stop the mentioned activity.\nThere are more, perhaps, and you can always verify them with your family doctor.

No offence, but you should be around 95-115lbs at your age. Try eating more leaner foods. Cut back on the heavy stuff. Try having a more healthy lifestyle. Make it so your couch potato days are over.

Resting heart rate for a 35-year-old is much less than 110.  If you have this rate 'all the time', then you may consider the problem of 'atrial fibrillation', which would cause this.  1st, you need to divulge much more information, or 2nd, you need to see a doctor.

My heart problems were caused by my unhealthy lifestyle, family history, and my 'type A' personality.\n\nor\n\nThere are three major factors in heart trouble, being a type A personality, family history, and an unhealthy lifestyle.

Very high. However you can reduce that risk with a sensible diet and keeping yourself at a healthy weight. Avoid smoking. And drink only moderate alcohol. All of those things will reduce your risk. Also you might want to have regualr tests with your doctor.

sure there are....\nLet's see... you can get either Lung cancer, Cancer of the Mouth, Cancer of the Larynx, Cancer of the Esophagus, Cancer of the Bladder, Cancer of the Pancreas, Cancer of the Reproductive Systems (and if your a guy... you'll have a slight chance of becoming impetent) and/or other cancers and all you have to pay is probably over $2500 for the increasing rate in which cigarettes/cigars are sold!\nAND if that isnt enough for you, let's add to the fact that smoking can increase your risk of getting coronary heart diseases, emhphysema, chronic bronchitis, acute myeloid leukemia, arteriosclerosis, stroke, and/or other diseases. \nALSO, a decade of your life will be wasted and your body will be in poor health by the time you reach the 40s (assuming you're not already there) because smoking also affects your cardiovascular and respiratory systems.\nPHYSICAL effects of smoking can cause your skin to wrinkle faster than nonsmokers, bad breath, yellowing teeth, and etc. \nThe person above me pretty much described smoking during pregnancy and secondhand smoke so I'm not going to go there...\nSO... my answer would be "yeah... you get tons of shit and all your doing is throwing your life away"\n\nplease note that my answer is sarcastic (for those slow people out there...) but the facts are facts... they're true!\n\nP.S.- Smoking is the number one preventable cause of death out there... and yet it kills more people than suicide, homocide, car accidents, AIDS, alcohol, and illegal drugs COMBINED. Keep that in mind...
