SYMPTOMS TO WATCH OUT FOR :

1) Chest discomfort : most common sign of heart danger. If you have a blocked artery or are having a heart attack, you may feel pain , tightness or pressure in your chest. Some say its like an elephant sitting on your chest whilst others say its a burning or pinching sensation. The feeling usually lasts more than a few minutes and can either occur whilst at rest or physical activity. Also keep in mind that you can have heart problems ~ even a heart attack~ without chest, particularly common in women.

2) Nausea, indigestion, heart burn or stomach pain : some people have these symptoms during a heart attack and may even vomit. these symptoms ususally occur in women.

3) Pain that spreads to the arm: another classic heart attack symptom is pain that radiates down the left side of the body starting from the chest outwards.

4) You feel dizzy or light headed.

5) Throat or jaw pain: by itself throat or jaw pain probably isnt heart related but if there is pain or pressure in the centre of the chest that spreads up the throat and jaw, it could be signs of a heart attack.

6) You get exhausted easily: if you suddenly feel fatigued or winded doing something that you usually do with ease, like climbing stairs.

7) snoring: its normal to snore a little but unusually loud snoring that sounds like gasping and choking can be signs of sleep apnea and can put pressure on the heart.

8) Sweating: breaking out in a cold sweat for no obvious reason can be a sign of a heart attack.
