What is wrong with my Dad? Last night he was vommiting flem and had all the symtons of a heart attack so my Mom called 911 even thought my Dad didnt want her too. When the ambulance got here they took alot of test and everything turned out good but they asked him if he wanted to go with them to the hospital. My dad was having a panic attack and said no. My Dad also was very dizzy after the abulance left. Now today he was eating and after one bite he was coughing alot and his face turned bright red and his chest locked up again. Is this hte begining stages of a heart attack or is it sometihng with digestion? Hesa about to go to the docter but im just worried.

Be patient Danielle, and let the doctors do their work, pray to God, because God listen to children more, OK.
There is something wrong with his digestive system, secondary to some underlying factors.
Your dad will back home, and you will be one happy family again, HAPPY.

I would call your Dr. They can test his blood for cardiac enzymes which would tell them if he's having a heart attack. Yes, nausea can come with a heart attack, but I seriously doubt it would immediately make him throw up after one bite of food. He may, on the other hand, have an ulcer or some other urgent medical problem or just the flu. Seek medical care!

There's something going on, but since he's going to see a doctor, you can count on the doctor running tests. Maybe alot of them. Whatever it is, a test can show it, then they can take care of it. Emergency medical people (ambulances) can only do so much. Seeing a doctor would do more.

now this ia a tricky question. if the doctors took tests and nothing showed up its probably nothing to do with his heart. there can be alot of things wrong. it could be anxiety. it could be hes comming down with a virus. he could also be having acid reflus problems. what he needs to do is go to his family doctor and have a rundown n different tests to find out the exact cause. good luck

The best thing you can do is to make sure your dad sees a doctor right away or take him to the emergency room at the hospital.

Doesn't sounds like a heart attack but best get checked out as the problem seems to persist.

He was possibly having a stroke and he should have gone with the medics. Get him to the doctor NOW. Strokes are extremely dangerous to ignore (scarier than heart attacks).
Screw his pride, YOU do what you have to do to get him to a hospital right now.

He needs to go to the emergency room now. The paramedics should of done this and they were wrong for not taking him in the first place.

Your dad needs Urgent medical attention.
Sounds like he has a lung problem.
