With the current push for awareness for women's heart health, it's noteworthy to acknowledge the symptoms that women experience prior to having a heart attack. Prevention Magazine encourages women not to ignore these symptoms, which may seem very unrelated to the heart.
- fatigue
- pain from someplace other than the chest (neck, jaw, back, shoulders, etc...)
- sweating
- nausea or dizziness
- breathlessness
- sleeplessness
- anxiety
Trust your instinct, and if you experience unusual symptoms (or know someone who does), see a doctor to rule out something serious.
