I think my husband had a mild heart attack early this morning (4 a.m.?). He had all the symptoms as I looked them up. He refused me to call 911 saying he thought he was ok. By 5:30 he felt well enough to rest, and sleep until 7. At 7 he said his chest was still hurting, but it was not a heart attack. He got dressed and left for work, saying he had a busy day and could not call in sick. I am freaking out b/c everything I read says you need treatment within 24 hours.
One of our close friends just had a heart attack. I am wondering the differences between heart disease and having a heart attack. What is the difference between the care ie elliminating salt from your diet or fats. Both men have received different advise as far as diet and excercise go and I don't understand why. Also why would there not be follow up treatment to access if heart disease is present in our friend who had the heart attack?
I'm not a doctor, but I understand people can be having a heart attack and still have a normal or near normal blood pressure. Heart attacks in women don't always include the same/typical symptoms as they do in men. Also, it's fairly common in women that symptoms of a heart attack come and go--so just because the clear up doesn't mean you're not having a heart attack.
Better safe than sorry, right? I would seek medical attention immediately. First, take a 325 mg.
30 PM with NO prior exertion, NO prior emotional trauma that one would suspect might have brought it on. I was sitting all snugly & warm on a cold evening, with my purring cat in my lap, reading an interesting story my friend had sent me, and actually thinking, 'A-A-h, this is the life, all cozy and warm in my soft, cushy Lazy Boy with my feet propped up.

Of course, not every heart attack is fatal. The total number of heart attacks in the USA in a year is about 1.5 million. That works out to about 4,000 heart attacks a day. In the USA, 27.8% of men are smokers and 23.3% of women are smokers. Smoking greatly increases the risk of a heart attack.
I hope this has been useful. A site on the Internet that contains lots of these statistics is the American Heart Association site at www.americanheart.org. Good luck with your school project.

Most treatments for erectile dysfunction cost heavy and few Treatment Erectile Dysfunction actually deliver results. Know more about them.
Heart attack symptoms are different for women and men, and not at all what you see in TV shows. I thought I had indigestion with my first blockage, but I went to the ER because besides the burning ache I had in my chest I also felt like I had an elephant sitting on my chest. If it hadn't been for that I would have continued to shrug it off as indigestion. I had pain in my upper back between my shoulder blades with these chest pains, too.
The simplest way to slash your risk of heart attack in half (or more)
By now, I'm sure you're well aware of the health benefits of eating fish. I hesitate to bring it up again, since you've been beaten over the head with it so many times by the media. Studies show remarkable results in heart attack and sudden death prevention from eating fish and taking omega-3 fatty acid supplements.

I have spent countless hours researching mens yeast infections. Finally, with some luck I have come across this forum and hope to get a straight forward answers. I had been diagnosed w/ yeast and took Diflucan. A few days later my boyfriend mentioned having a bump "pimple" on his penis. I immediatly thought I passed the infection on to him. Since this is fairly new relationship we both decided to go to the doctor and get checked for stds and yeast.
HI
The good news is there is no damage to your heart muscle, which means the things you read on the internet do not apply to you. Those statistics normally relate to people who have dead heart muscle from a heart attack. Your latest echo proves your muscle is fine.
You seem surprised that this has happened at your age. It is becoming more common now. When I was 46 I had my first blockage, but others were seen during the angiogram which had been there for many years.
Hello,
I was just wondering if you could tell me why men recieve more aggressive treatment,when comes to heart disease, Then women do c/o of the same symptoms. When alot of articles out there say women are more likly to die from a heart attack then men. If this is the case, should'nt the same aggressive measures be taken for women.
Also,could you please tell me what variant angina pectoris is,and what can be done about it.
Best Multivitamins for Men.
Recent research findings also conclude that men taking a daily multivitamin may gain protection from cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke in the long-term. The new study, published in The Journal of Nutrition, involved 18,530 male physicians over 40 years old. The researchers found a 44% reduction in major cardiovascular disease event risk in men who were multivitamin users for at least 20 years.
