Ignore what anyone says and

GO TO THE DOCTOR -- NOW --

Call the Ambulance if necessary. People are toying with your life here, this is unforgivable.
I've worked on an Ambulance for a while and believe me, I've driven people to the ER for less.

I've also been to the funeral of a classmate who died suddenly from a myocard infection at the age of 17.

I give you a tip GD.
Pretend that your pain is very very bad and the pain unbearable (worse than what it is at the moment).
I am sure that after this your parents will do something about.

RE: I dont know what to do.
From medical advice I've received you're technically supposed to phone for an ambulance whenever you feel pain in your chest that you think could be caused by your heart.

My heart skips beats and I phoned up a helpline and what they asked me is do I have any chest pain and if so I should phone for an ambulance. I didn't have any actual pain though it was just a pretty weird heartbeat which I still get sometimes.

On the other hand chest pain can be caused by various things, but I'd go as soon as possible to the doctor whether or not your parents want you to.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

That is excellent news Smile

Please let us know how you get on! I'm glad your mother finally saw sense. She was walking a legal tightrope.

As a recently-become parent, I can't tell you how utterly incomprehensible this behavior is to me. What is wrong with people???

I really don't know. I'd treat my worst enemy better than that.

Dude, you need to start making preparations to move out the second you turn 18.  If you're going to go to a university, move into a dorm (even though it raises tuition).  If not, find some roommates.  In any event, get ready to get a part-time job next year so you can get yourself a vehicle and start saving up.  Your mom is doing you absolutely 0 favors at this point, and your only real option for living a happy, fulfilled life is independence.

You could be in cardiac arrest in a few days.  This is not something to fuck around with.
