[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 134302, member: 2211"] {{{Lisa}}} That is some scary stuff! I can't believe you were able to remain calm for so long. Glad you got checked out, but it is true - the tests they have do not monitor women the same way when it comes to a heart attack. Although they are making strides in recent years, heart attacks were rarely studied in women and so not all the tests are geared for us. Also, women's symptoms of heart attacks are often very different from men and do not always present in the same manner. My mom had 3 and never even realized it. It was the scar tissue that gave the DR's a clue after her first stroke. Please stay on top of this, reduce your daily stress as much as possible and get thee to the ER ASAP at the first signs!! Sending hugs~ [/QUOTE]
