10 signs of heart attack

Cardiologists are very ambiguous and not every time make it clear what are the main symptoms you should expect in a heart attack. So, I think a collection of 10 signs of the most common symptoms of heart attack will be useful to all those which think they are in the risk group of this condition.

1. A strange sensation in the chest, especially in the left side, as a fullness sensation, pain or squeezing
2. Heartburn - you can precisely indicate where the pain is located
3. Indigestion or pain in the upper middle abdomen
4. Shortness of breath and difficulties in respiration, dispnea
5. Jaw pain, toothache, headache
6. Nausea, abdominal discomfort or vomiting
7. Arm pain, more common the left arm, irradiating in the left shoulder and upper back
8. Sweating
9. General malaise and feeling of illness, fear, indisposition or anxiety
10. No symptoms - more than 1/4 of all heart attacks are silent, painless and no symptoms. Silent heart attacks seems to be the most dangerous - the patient isn't seeking medical care and this may have consequences.
