IMPORTANT: IF YOU FEEL:
- Chest
discomfort. Most heart attacks involve discomfort in the
center of the chest that lasts for more than a few minutes,
or goes away and comes back. The discomfort can feel like
uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness, or pain.
- Discomfort
in other areas of the upper body. Can include pain or discomfort
in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw, or stomach.
- Shortness
of breath. Often comes along with chest discomfort. But
it also can occur before chest discomfort.
- Other
symptoms. May include breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea,
or light-headedness.
You could be having a heart attack.
The pain is associated with nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath, cold sweats, dizziness or palpitations and the longer it lasts, (over 30 min.) the more likely it has progressed to a heart attack (MI or 'myocardial infarction') with damage or death of heart muscle. Sometimes, particularly in women, the elderly, the diabetic, and with smokers there may be no pain but just the other associated symptoms or a sense of overwhelming fatigue.
