What's the scientific explanation for the chest pains you feel when you lose someone you love whether through break-up or death? A Wikipedia article on the subject would be fine.

Ah yes, the "Broken heart syndrome". You guys are fucking idiots. A guy asks for an explanation of a simple and common physical response, and you direct him at an incredibly rare disorder which, by the way, also requires a previous history of neurotic disorders.

OP, don't listen to these twats. Answer: emotional state induces sympathetic nervous system hyperactivity which messes up the hydrodynamics of the heart muscle. THE. FUCKING. END.

If you had read the posts before that, none of them were about broken heart syndrome.

In fact, they were simply about strong emotions sometimes causing somatic symptoms.

Good job on those reading skills there, fella.
