Go to the emergency room anyway. Most hospitals are required to at least stabilize you if you are having a heart attack. Explain to them that you have no insurance, and they will transfer you to a charity hospital after they have treated you. As far as I know, most states have some kind of charity hospital system in place. Or, in some cases, you can work out a payment plan for your hospital stay with a pay hospital. You'll need to talk to someone at the hospital; I'm sure someone in admissions can help you, or maybe even your doctor can point you in the right direction.
Good luck.
