What are the early signs of a heart attack?

Do you know how to find out what the signs of a heart attack are? Or heart problems?

  • Answer:

    Signs and Symptoms of a Heart Attack "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. This can include pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw, or stomach. Shortness of breath. This often comes along with chest discomfort. But it also can occur before chest discomfort. Other symptoms. These may include breaking out in a cold sweat or feeling nausea or light–headedness." I agree with the answer above me that it could be gas, based on the fact that it goes away and you don't seem to have other symptoms. I have had that happen to me in the past and I swore I was having a heart attack and was on my way to the hospital when I belched and the pain went away. It could also be anxiety caused by the stress you are under. I have had that happen as well, usually during a panic attack. If you develop more of the symptoms above, get to the hospital ASAP! Most hospitals HAVE to take care of you and will work out payment arrangements. There are also programs available that pay for all or a large part of the bill. *I am not a licensed medical professional and only offer my opinions based on personal experience and research.*

Shortness of breath is a very key indicator - are you having any trouble breathing? If you are, get to an emergency room right away. You may be a little scared now, but if you get treatment quick enough (if it is heart trouble) then they can do something about it before there is any permanent damage. Take care.

Money or not you go to a doctor or a free clinic and get checked out, if you want to check online about heart attacks, check out the hear association websites, don't wait, do it now, don't ever let money stop you from seeking help from a doctor or hospital, your life is more important, just do it.

Woman have different signs than men. Shortness of breath - being very tired - pain in the jaw - pain in the shoulders - pain in the left arm, sometimes with numbness or tingling. YOU DON'T NEED MONEY TO GO TO THE ER. If you are having any of these symptons, please go to the hospital!!

Stress can cause heart attack symptoms. You should go to the doctor to get checked out. You may not have money for a doctor, but your family members also may not have money to bury you in the event there is something wrong.
