Heart Attack Warning Signs

This week I am focusing on the warning signs of heart issues!  Since last year at this time I was not being HONEST and trying to "fix" myself, I am trying to help others that may be "crazy" me!

This website - Heart Attack Warning Signs gives some relative info!


 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.

My problem was the first issue - "uncomfortable pressure"

BE SMART  - if you are having any of these issues - SEE A DOCTOR!
