4 Heart Attack Indicators – You Didn’t Know About

Many people consider having a heart attack as easy to spot – pain in the chest, left arm and jaw, and all the sweaty drama that goes with it – it’s the stuff TV medical dramas are made of…

…but the reality is heart attacks are much more subtle!

It is estimated that as many as 1 in 4 heart attacks are considered “silent,” meaning they appear out of the blue, with no clear warning signs preceding the event.

Heart disease causes more deaths than cancer each year, but researchers have pinpointed 4 more “warning” signs a heart attack could be pending, which you need to be aware of, even if you don’t smoke and lead a healthy life.

– Dull, coming-and-going pain – It’s not just the sudden sharp pains you should be worried about. ANY discomfort in the upper body and extremities can be cause for concern.

– Nausea and vomiting – if you are going about your day, feeling generally well and suddenly start vomiting, it’s time to pay heed. Note how many times this occurs and contact your doctor.

– Sweating – (when you normally don’t). People usually sweat when they vomit or experience pain. But if you have pain, nausea, and sweating all lumped together, get to the doctor immediately.

– Shortness of breath – If you haven’t been working out, or sitting down doesn’t bring any relief, go to the ER. If it hurts to inhale or exhale, or you feel as if you are breathing through a straw, it’s time to get help.

Many times, a general feeling of malaise or lethargy can happen for days or even weeks leading up to a heart attack, so if you have been feeling under the weather and these other symptoms start to appear, seek medical help.
