I was 60 and in good health. I was not super skinny, but my weight was under control. I had eaten healthy most of my life. I exercised. I could not be having a heart attack\u2026and yet I was. All my friends and family were surprised, yet I have a strong family history of heart problems on my dad\u2019s side. I had thought my healthy lifestyle would protect me.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now I know that I had had several warning signs over the year before, but I didn\u2019t recognize them. A few times when working hard or exercising, I would break out in a sweat and feel very nauseous for 30 minutes or longer. And that is how it all started 9 \"\"<\/a>years ago. I had gone to my church to help with a Fall Festival when I suddenly broke out in a sweat and start feeling extremely nauseous. An older lady in my church saw I was not feeling well and asked me to come inside and sit with her. That terrible sick feeling was just getting worse, but I had no chest pain or pain down my arm so I would have never guessed a heart attack. My friend recognized what was happening and called 911. I spent 8 days in the hospital following what they called a significant heart attack.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t want another lady to miss the signs of a possible heart attack and possibly wait too long to get help so here are some of the warning signs for a woman from the American Heart Association.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain in the center of your chest. It lasts more than a few minutes, or goes away and comes back.<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. Pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach.<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort.<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. Other signs such as breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness.<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n
  5. As with men, women\u2019s most common heart attack symptom is\u00a0chest pain<\/a>\u00a0or discomfort. But women are somewhat more likely than men to experience some of the other common symptoms, particularly shortness of breath, nausea\/vomiting and back or jaw pain.<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If you have any of these symptoms, call 911<\/strong><\/span> or get to a hospital right away<\/span><\/strong>!! Don\u2019t wait\u2014you just might save a life-YOURS.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
