The autonomic nervous system is composed of nerves serving the heart, gastrointestinal system and urinary system. Autonomic neuropathy can affect any of these organ systems.(Wikipedia)
Lack of heart attack symptoms can cause delay in treatment
For most people who don't have diabetes, heart disease speaks loud and clear. Inadequate blood flow to the heart muscle causes chest pain or pressure, a pounding heartbeat, shortness of breath, jaw or arm pain, and sweating. People with these signs and symptoms know something's wrong and are likely to seek help.
In people with diabetes, however, heart disease often doesn't offer such clues, so you may not seek medical care until noticeable — and more serious — complications have occurred. In other words, you can have a "silent" heart attack and not know it.
Regular visits with your doctor and health care team can help spot heart problems before they worsen. If your doctor suspects you have cardiovascular problems, you may be referred to a heart specialist (cardiologist). Various tests, such as an electrocardiogram (ECG) or a nuclear stress test, can help assess your heart function.(CNN)
An insufficient supply of oxygen to the heart muscle causes angina. Angina that occurs with exercise or exertion is called exertional angina. In some patients, especially diabetics, the progressive decrease in blood flow to the heart may occur without any pain or with just shortness of breath or unusually early fatigue. No symptoms (Approximately one quarter of all heart attacks are silent, without chest pain or new symptoms. Silent heart attacks are especially common among patients with diabetes mellitus). Even though the symptoms of a heart attack at times can be vague and mild, it is important to remember that heart attacks producing no symptoms or only mild symptoms can be just as serious and life-threatening as heart attacks that cause severe chest pain. Too often patients attribute heart attack symptoms to "indigestion," "fatigue," or "stress," and consequently delay seeking prompt medical attention. One cannot overemphasize the importance of seeking prompt medical attention in the presence of symptoms that suggest a heart attack. Early diagnosis and treatment saves lives, and delays in reaching medical assistance can be fatal. A delay in treatment can lead to permanently reduced function of the heart due to more extensive damage to the heart muscle. Death also may occur as a result of the sudden onset of arrhythmias such as ventricular fibrillation. (Medicinenet)

Any of the studies I have read about place women in the same categories as men. There are many types of heart attacks and the ensuing pains fely by them. I for one had four heart attacks, I have never had one stereotypical pain described in any medical report as yet. This is more the typical then the untypical of a heart attack. I do believe the heart attacks and the pains related to them should be rewritten because they are so out of fate. I think more people that go home and lay down because they are so tired and weak have more heart attacks then the chest screaming falling down type. Mine were related to very tired, sleepy, sweaty and unable to complete any project that I'm doing. Slightly out of breathe. As for women, I spoke to quite few and would place them in the same category.

Where in the world did you get that idea? A heart attack is painful - having diabetes doesn't change that. If you are referring to pain during a diabetic coma or seizure, then there is no particular pain, but it has nothing to do with a heart attack.
