As a medical professional, I would like to emphasize the importance of recognizing the signs of a heart attack, which can vary between individuals. Here are some common symptoms to be aware of:


1. Chest pain or discomfort: This is often described as pressure, squeezing, fullness, or pain in the center of the chest, and it can last for more than a few minutes or come and go.


2. Upper body discomfort: Pain or discomfort can extend beyond the chest to the arms, back, neck, jaw, or stomach.


3. Shortness of breath: This can occur with or without chest discomfort.


4. Nausea, lightheadedness, or cold sweats: These are less common but serious symptoms that may accompany a heart attack.


5. Fatigue: Unexplained or unusual tiredness, especially in combination with other symptoms, can be a sign.

It's important to call emergency services immediately if you suspect you are having a heart attack. Do not wait for symptoms to become more severe. Early treatment is critical for the best possible outcome.
