What are signs of a heart attack?
While chest pain that is new and comes on quickly may be the sign of a heart attack, there are other possible signs you should look for. Some of these might include:
Tightness in your chest
Shortness of breath
Pain or a squeezing feeling in your left chest or left arm, or pain that goes up into your jaw
Having sudden nausea or vomiting
Lightheadedness or dizziness
If you think you or someone else is having a heart attack, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY. Do NOT drive yourself to the hospital. Wait for paramedics to arrive and help you.
