A serious note about heart attacks

HEART ATTACK PROCEDURE': (THIS IS NOT A JOKE!)

Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm

I am living proof that the symptoms of a heart attack can be very different from whay you believe. I had the chest pain with pain in my RIGHT elbow. Now that I think about it, I broke out into a sweat and was soaked from head to toe.


Hope this info helps especially the part on what to do if you are alone and think you are experiencing a heart attack.
