A study of 515 women who had an acute heart attack (MI, Myocardial Infarction), reported symptoms that were not your typical heart symptoms. The most commonly reported symptoms were unusual fatigue, sleep disturbances, shortness of breath, indigestion, and anxiety.

Only 30% of the women who reported chest pain had reports of aching and tightness.  Women who experience symptoms of heart disease tend to ignore or deny that any discomfort exists.  Women are less likely to seek help early when symptoms of heart disease begin to manifest themselves. They figure if they are feeling tired, its because the week must have been particular busy, let alone the fact that she may be having problems sleeping.  The most remote thing from her mind is that she could be on the road to an impending heart attack, thus is less prone to get needed medical attention. 

Statistics have shown that women have a higher risk for heart attack than men, due in part to changes in estrogen levels that take as she ages. Women who take birth control pills and smoke  are also at a higher risk.  In addition to this, as a woman ages, her risks for heart attack increase, and is more likely to succumb to heart disease.  Even if she suffers a heart attack while hospitalized, her chances of survival are less than that of a man.  Also, women tend to experience a cardiac event 10 years later than men do.  It is paramount for women to get educated and know their risks to prevent becoming a statistic.

Although a woman of any age can fall victim to a heart attack, having a family history of heart disease should be her first clue of what her risks involve.  Women need to realize that heart disease is their number one killer, and it is not just a disease of men. That is why its important for women to take charge of their health to know what her risks for heart disease are, and learn to recognize the signs and symptoms.

There are many options for treatment available, including the immediate opening of a blocked artery, restoring blood flow to the heart. Realizing the early symptoms of heart attack aids in the accuracy of the right diagnosis and the right treatment. Your health is your responsibility, so take care of yourself to ensure you live a healthy quality of life for as long as possible.

Jenny asked:


And angina pains?

I lost my husband due to a massive heart attack years ago, & I thought heart disease could be detected these days better than it was then.

I am somewhat of a band aid nurse, & I thought I knew some things about health, but I’ve learned lately due to a friend,that sometimes it masks itself & you cannot tell.

How can you tell if you have heart trouble? Is there anyone out there that has dealt with this? I thought that heart trouble was diagnosed easier than it was 10 years ago.

Thank you.

To find your risk for a heart attack, check the boxes that apply to you:

A family history of early heart disease

(Father or brother diagnosed before age 55)

(Mother or sister diagnosed before age 65)

Age (Men 45 years or older;Women 55 years or older) High blood cholesterol High blood pressure One or more previous heart attacks, angina,

bypass surgery or angioplasty, stroke, or blockages in neck or leg arteries

Overweight Physical inactivity Cigarette smoking Diabetes

The more risk factors you have, the greater your risk for a heart attack.

How do I know if I am having a heart attack?

You may be having a heart attack if you feel any of these symptoms:

Chest discomfort or pain which lasts longer than 5 minutes AND is not relieved by rest or nitroglycerin AND feels like:

• pressure

• tightness

• squeezing

• crushing

• intense burning

• aching

In addition to the symptoms above, you may also have:

pain radiating to your:

• back

• shoulder

• neck

• jaw/teeth

• arm

• wrist

shortness of breath

dizziness

fainting

nausea (feeling sick to your stomach)

vomiting (throwing up)

unusual weakness

rapid and/or irregular heartbeat

sense of impending (coming) doom

DON’T DELAY!

If you are having a heart attack, getting medical attention right away can save your life! Getting medical care within one hour of your heart attack can lower the amount of heart muscle damaged.

Your symptoms may come on gradually (slowly). They may be vague or intermittent (start and stop).

• If you have angina, your heart attack symptoms may feel like your angina, but your heart attack symptoms may be stronger or last longer.

• If you have had a heart attack before, it may feel the same or different.

What should I do?

1. Stop what you are doing.

2. Sit or lie down.

3. If your doctor has prescribed nitroglycerin for you, place one nitroglycerin tablet under your tongue. Let it dissolve. Do not chew or swallow the pill. If your symptoms are not relieved in 3–5 minutes by nitroglycerin and rest, call 911 emergency services before you call anyone else.*

While you wait for the ambulance, you can continue to put one nitroglycerin tablet under your tongue every 5 minutes until your symptoms are relieved or until the ambulance arrives. If you do not have your nitroglycerin with you, call 911 emergency services before you call anyone else.*

4. If your doctor has not prescribed nitroglycerin for you, call 911 emergency services before you call anyone else.*

5. Do not drive yourself.

6. If you are not already taking daily aspirin, chew one adult-strength (325mg), uncoated

aspirin tablet if you have it and if you are not allergic to aspirin.

John Dugan asked:


Owning a dog comes with a great deal of responsibility, and when it comes to a dog’s health, there are many illnesses that are better prevented than cured. And, this includes canine heart attacks.

Dogs, like humans, suffer from heart disease and can suffer from heart attacks, which are typically brought on by diabetes, old age, and obesity as well as by congenital heart defects and diseases of the heart.

Diabetes and obesity often causes the arteries of a dog’s heart to become blocked or they may narrow due to fatty deposits while the heart of an older dog may suffer from a weakening of the heart muscles with the result that your dog’s heart may no longer function as well as it did when your pet was younger. Congenital abnormalities, which are usually present at the time of a dog’s birth, tend to cause heart issues earlier in a dog’s life and are much harder to treat.

Heart disease in dogs is not uncommon. The three major forms of dog heart disease are dilated cardiomyopathy (or DCM), an enlarged heart, and heart murmurs—all of which can cause your dog to have a heart attack. However, knowing what to look for and how to prevent your pet from suffering from a heart attack can mean the difference between him or her living to a ripe old age or passing away prematurely.

The five most prevalent signs of your dog having a heart attack are:

Breathing difficulties; Excessive panting; Drowsiness; Coughing; and Lethargy.

Veterinarians diagnose heart failure in dogs by testing their heart rhythm and blood pressure as well as conducting more in-depth cardiograms, which record you dog’s heart activity. Treatment for heart failure is often costly and complex with your pet having to be hospitalized, being put on a drip, and taking a cocktail of drugs, which allow its heart to recover and function better in the future. However, as with humans, once your pet has suffered from a heart attack, special care and a diet will have to be followed to ensure that he or she has a certain quality of life.

While a dog heart attack can be treated by a veterinarian and possibly have a successful outcome, prevention is far better than a cure. This is why a product has been manufactured and is now available to protect your dog’s heart from heart attacks, using natural ingredients that have anti-clotting properties.

Aspirin should never be given to dogs as it can prove fatal; however there is an aspirin substitute that can protect your dog’s heart and may save your dog’s life or at the very least prevent your dog from living with debilitating injury caused by canine heart attack and that aspirin substitute for dogs is: Petsprin-D.  For more information on Petsprin-D visit https://www.petsprin.com
