It\u2019s true. That said, it\u2019s important\nto know the signs and symptoms in order to ensure you get proper care if and\nwhen it happens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sweating. Pressure. Nausea. Jaw pain. May not seem dangerous\nat first glance but believe it or not, these are all symptoms of a heart attack\nin women. And this is why many women don\u2019t believe it\u2019s anything more than a\ncold. As with men, the most common heart attack symptom in women is chest pain\nor discomfort. But it\u2019s important to note that women are more likely to\nexperience the other common symptoms, particularly shortness of breath,\nnausea\/vomiting and back or jaw pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are common symptoms of a heart attack:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or\npain in the center of your chest that lasts more than a few minutes, or goes\naway and comes back.<\/li><li>Pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the\nback, neck, jaw or stomach.<\/li><li>Shortness of breath, with or without chest\ndiscomfort.<\/li><li>Other signs such as breaking out in a cold\nsweat, nausea or lightheadedness.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Women who consider themselves healthy often misdiagnose the symptoms of a heart attack because they don\u2019t think it could happen to them. Unfortunately, no one is free from risk of a heart attack. That is why it\u2019s crucial to learn about\u00a0heart disease and\u00a0stroke,\u00a0know your numbers,\u00a0live a\u00a0heart-healthy lifestyle\u00a0and be aware of the\u00a0risk factors\u00a0of heart disease. Take care of yourself, ladies. Not everything is just as it seems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you would like more information on heart attacks, contact Dr. Gordon C.
