have any apparent triggers.

shattered heart syndrome occurs when your heart
muscle weakens rapidly due to unexpected physical
or emotional stress.

shortness of breath and chest painare similar,
you could believe you're suffering a heart
attack. However, you typically heal quickly and
entirely in broken heart syndrome without
permanent heart damage or clogged coronary
arteries.

Broken Heart Syndrome Who Is Affected?

  electrical activity of your heart.

  in your heart using an X-ray and dye).
• Echocardiography (which uses sound waves to
  provide moving pictures of the beating of your
  heart)

• A chest X-ray (shows the structure of your heart,
  lungs, and blood vessels).
• Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the heart
  (produces both still and moving pictures of your
  heart).
• When a dye is injected into the heart's left
  ventricle, an X-ray can be taken to determine the
  size and pumping capacity of this heart chamber.
