WARNINGS

Our heart health is very valuable for a lifetime. We are hearing more about Heart attacks these days. I am writing this definitely NOT to threaten you but just to prepare you better to identify and escape any risk. There could be elders at home, this awareness is always handy in times of trouble to take a smart action and avoid the trouble.

Warning Signs of a Heart Attack:

The most common symptoms of a heart attack, especially for men, include severe chest pain, shortness of breath and pain that spreads to the shoulders, neck, arms and jaw.

Conversely, women often experience atypical heart attack symptoms such as nausea or vomiting, dizziness, fatigue, inability to sleep and breaking out in a cold sweat.

But everyone is different and not all people suffer the same symptoms or experience them to the same degree. That's why some people can overlook or ignore heart attack symptoms such as indigestion and fatigue. There are many factors which increase the risk, like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity and lack of physical activity. Reason could be either they dont know they have these certain risk factors affecting them or they dont have these factors under control. The key is getting a regular health check up, no one will tease you if you go to the Hospital just to get checked up.

The key is to listen to your body and seek immediate medical treatment if you experience these warnings.
