A complete list of serious/fatal/life threatening medical conditions?

Are there symptoms that one should never ignore?

  • Is it possible to list common symptoms of life-threatening medical problems which should never be ignored?  If so, what are they?  Examples: A crushing pain in the chest - possible heart attack A lump in breast tissue - possible breast cancer Note: I'm sure the list of possible symptoms for deadly diseases and conditions is nearly infinite.  I'm interested in those symptoms with a high (and what is "high" in the medical realm? Over 10%?) likelihood of something very serious.  The sort of thing somebody who doesn't like going to the hospital should get checked out.

  • Answer:

    Sudden onset of the 'worst headache of your life' - Subarachnoid Bleed
