I think i had or am going to have...?!
Question: I think i had or am going to have!.!.!.!?
a heart attack!. i'm only 24!.!.!.TODAY!. :( lol but about an hour ago i had a tightness in the middle of my chest that made my back between my shoulder blades feel tight too!. like hard to breathe a little bit, mostly uncomfortable!. i didn't think much of it at first but then the tightness turned into more of a squeezing pain and i could feel it on the back and front of my chest!. right in the middle though, nowhere else!. i don't want to jump to conclusions that i, a young woman, could have been having a heart attack or even the onset of one!.!.!.
it went away after about 5 minutes or more!.!.!.slowly!. i want to at least wait until tomorrow to call the doctor, since it IS my birthday i don't want to get my whole family up to go to the ER for something silly!. but now i'm scared to go to sleep too!. :(
what should i do!?!
i know i "should" go to the ER with this complaint but what is the likelihood i could actually have a heart attack at this age out of nowhere!? and if it went away and hasn't come back yet, should i just dismiss it and go to sleep until tomorrow!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

First off, happy birthday!!!
Second, age has nothing to do with heart attacks!. Remember, there are children with cancer and diabetes and all other types of diseases that usually older people get!. Now is it unlikely that you are having true cardiac chest pain, yes!. But is it possible!.!.!.yes!. Alot of factors come into play especially with younger people and heart problems (family history, diet, exercise, risk factors, ect)!.
The chest pain you described is typical in angina (which means cardiac pain) but it can be many other things!. As a healthcare professional I must ADVISE YOU TO GO TO THE ER immediately and get it check out for you, your family and your baby to be!. Better safe than sorry!.
Remember every case is different so if you have additional concerns please ask your doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Take an aspirin right now they really do prevent heart attacks google it if you want!. Go to sleep and schedule an appointment to see a heart doctor!. If you feel it start to happen again go directly to the ER they need to get readings while it's happening!.I'm not saying this pertains to you but women with eating disorders are much more likely to have heart attacks!. You can google that also if you need to!. Hope you feel better!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
You must know that heart attacks take place in people of ALL ages!. I'm sure your family would rather see you in the hospital than meeting for a final goodbye!. Don't take chances, sweetie!. Do the smart thing you already know you should do!. Let the professionals rule out anything serious!. Better safe than sorry!. Make the call!. Now!. Happy Birthday!. Such is life, my dear!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
YOu had better rethink your priorities! You are pregnant and having that tightness and pain!.!.!.and you don't want to go to the ER because it is your birthday!?!?!?!?!!! Well girl you and that baby may not live to enjoy the day!. Ever think of that!? You need to get to the ER!.!.!.!.!.!.!.NOW!Www@Answer-Health@Com
At a guess, I think you had an anxiety attack or perhaps angina!. If you also had clammy skin, perfuse sweating rapid pulse or the pain continued you should be calling 911 NOW!!! It is always better to treat for the worst and hope for the best!.

Honestly, it could just be gas!.
GAS HURTS! I dunno why, but it does!.
If you start feeling tingling in your left arm I would be extremely worried!. If this pain doesn't go away go to the ER and ask that they do an EKG!.
I hope your okay sweetie!.

Hello! Congratulations on your pregnancy!. And Happy Birthday!
This doesn't sound like anything to worry about!. It may have been a form of indigestion!.
Heart attack is usually indicated by a pain lasting quite longer than 5 minutes!. If the pain lasts longer than 10-15 minutes, and radiates through and arm, into your neck, and if you feel like it is harder to breathe, and if your skin appears more blue, then suspect a heart issue!.
Pregnancy can also make obvious cardiac conditions that weren't before!. But this is very rare!.
If you have any abnormal swelling in your face and hands, pain in your abdomen or chest, then also please go to ER!.
Keep up any appointments with your pre-natal doctor, and I wish you all the best in the future!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
