The phrase "heavy heart" usually refers to emotions. Psychological distress rather than a physical condition. Emotional or psychological distress alone is unlikely to cause a heart attack. Although chronic stress and anxiety. Can increase the risk of developing cardiovascular disease over time. Heart attacks usually occur as a result of plaque buildup in the coronary arteries. That supplies blood to the heart muscle. When plaque ruptures or a blood clot forms, it can block blood flow to the heart muscle, leading to a heart attack. While emotional distress can lead to physical symptoms. As increased heart rate and blood pressure are not the direct cause of a heart attack. There are several risk factors that can increase the likelihood of developing cardiovascular. Disease and heart attack, including smoking, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. Diabetes, obesity, lack of physical activity, and a family history of heart disease. These risk factors are generally more sig

A character who clutches her chest and immediately runs. To the floor is a "Hollywood heartthrob". But most heart attacks don't behave that way. In particular, symptoms of heart disease in women can differ in quality and severity from men.
It may be easy to brush these subtle signs aside. As one woman in my heart support group said, "Nothing compares to having a baby!" Of course, they are things. The sooner you get attention and help, the better the outcome.
I saw a small signal and took immediate action. My heart was not damaged and I was immediately able to return to a full life.
Here are some explanations that can give women a clearer picture of what to look for.
Abdominal pain:
Men often experience chest pain and pain radiating down one arm. Some women do, but most women don't. I experienced a split second of pressure in the middle of the chest, total panic - a split second. I happened to notice.
Another female friend reported that her breasts were on fire.
Any pressure, tightness, or burning in the centre of the breast. That lasts more than a few minutes or comes and goes is a warning sign.
Disorders of one or both arms, back, neck, jaw, or upper body:
A woman I know has pain in her jaw. The other woke up in the middle of the night with elbow pain that he said was related to his heart. Others reported stab wounds to their necks, shoulders, or hands.
In a recent interview, a woman told me about her jaw pain. Dental problems and temporomandibular joint problems were investigated, but no evidence was found. Should I see a cardiologist? "Yes!" I shouted.
Unexplained upper body pain should be suspicious and urgent. See a cardiologist; if the pain is severe or persistent, call 9-1-1 and go to the ER.
Shortness of breath with or without chest pain:
Shortness of breath should be suspected unless there is a reasonable explanation. Such as an allergy problem or flying down the stairs.
Dizziness, dizziness or fatigue, nausea, vomiting chills:
A few days after my experience with pressure, I started to get dizzy and had heart palpitations. It may be a virus, but not a fever. It is a good idea to measure your temperature before you remove the virus and remove the idea of a heart attack.
After I got to the hospital, I started having stomach pain. And acid reflux, which bolts and bolts my stomach like an advertisement! The doctor asked me if I had acid reflux, and when I said no, he decided to do an angioplasty.
I know young female athletes who start to feel weak after a race. He had a congenital heart valve defect that required surgery.
So if you don't have a good explanation for your symptoms, ask for help again.
Feelings of anxiety, fatigue, or weakness - unexplained or unexplained:
I have met at least one major heart patient. Who says they have unexplained anxiety as their primary symptom. But, there is no decline in his life, so this episode is very suspicious.
The extreme fatigue associated with heartburn is like having a hole in your "fuel tank". Where all the fuel goes. A female friend said that she was very tired, lying in bed, and feeling cold. And wanted to cover up, but she was working too much. That's when he realized he needed to go to the hospital.
To act
There is an e-mail that continues to circulate on the Internet. With heartbreaking tips. Some good advice: if you think you're having a heart attack, take an aspirin and eat it right away. Squeeze it out and wash it down with a full glass of water.
But these letters always end with a scary piece of advice:
Call a friend or relative and wait at the door, and that person will take you to the hospital.
The message health care providers want you to hear:
Don't drive yourself or ask a friend or family member to drive you.
If you have any of the above symptoms, call 9-1-1. If it's a heart attack, emergency personnel can treat it in an ambulance. This can be important.
Women who often don't want to talk about themselves will call 9-1-1 in a minute if someone close to them is in danger. But they don't do it themselves.
The few minutes you spend waiting for help can make all the difference.
