Answer 2

That depends on your gender, are you male or female. The studies have found males and females have different symptoms for heart attacks.

Females may have what feels like bad indigestion, fatigue, shortness of breath, some numbness. They may have one or all of these symptoms and maybe a few more.

If for any reason you ever suspect that you are having a heart attack, best to call 911 and get checked. It could save your life.
Males have usually a gripping pain in the chest, shortness of breath and some numbness on the left side/arm.

Answer 3

The American Heart Association and other medical experts say the body likely will send one or more of these warning signals of a heart attack:

Uncomfortable pressure, fullness, squeezing or pain in the center of the chest lasting more than a few minutes.
Pain spreading to the shoulders, neck or arms. The pain may be mild to intense. It may feel like pressure, tightness, burning, or heavy weight. It may be located in the chest, upper abdomen, neck, jaw, or inside the arms or shoulders.
Chest discomfort with lightheadedness, fainting, sweating, nausea or shortness of breath.
Anxiety, nervousness and/or cold, sweaty skin.
Paleness or pallor.
Increased or irregular heart rate.
Feeling of impending doom.
