6. You have an irregular heartbeat
Irregular heartbeats and arrhythmias are often accompanied by panic and anxiety attacks, especially among women. They appear unexpectedly and manifest themselves in various ways: arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat) or tachycardia (increased heart rate). Exercise may provide additional stimulation to the increased heart rate, especially in cases of atherosclerotic disease. The irregular heartbeat lasts 1-2 minutes. If it doesn’t go away, you may experience dizziness and extreme fatigue. Call your doctor immediately.
7. You suffer from excessive sweating
Unusual or excessive sweating is an early warning sign of a heart attack. It can occur at any time of the day or night. This symptom more commonly affects women and is often confused with hot flashes or night sweats typical of menopause. Flu-like symptoms, clammy skin, or sweating that occurs regardless of air temperature or physical exertion are the main signs. Sweating seems to be more excessive at night; therefore, your sheets may feel damp in the morning.
8. You suffer from severe chest pain
Men and women experience chest pain of varying severity and severity. In men, this symptom is one of the most important early warning signs of an impending heart attack and should not be ignored. On the other hand, women are affected only 30% of the time. Chest pain may spread and cause discomfort in one or both arms (most often the left), the lower jaw, the neck, shoulders, or the stomach. It may be permanent or temporary.
