A woman who suffers from heart disease or has a heart attack is quite different from a man. A man’s arm will usually hurt badly enough that it cannot be lifted, while a woman experiencing a heart attack or some sort of heart disease will usually be just enough to be uncomfortable and usually in one arm. It is not always like that but most instances it is.

Shortness of breath, weakness, unusual fatigue (this usually occurs when it is lest expected), cold sweats you’ll be almost drenched, dizziness to the point that you feel as though you are going to black out.

Most women who have pain or pressure in the back or high chest usually don’t pay that much attention to it because it is more of a discomfort such as pressure, an ache or tightness that comes and goes like heartburn and you get nauseated; you may experience an irregular heart beat that will feel like you heart is turning flip flops.

Get to know your body. You will sense something is wrong and get to a hospital immediately. If you have no one to take you call 911 immediately.
