Answers:
First, if you think you are having a heart attack, STOP, TAKE AN ASPIRIN NOW!. Then call 911!.

Symptoms of heart attacks are different for males & females!.
I will include all: Pain or weakness especially in left arm, but can be right arm too; pain radiating up chest to jaw; paleness; fluish feeling; shortness of breath; chest pain any side!.

Panic attack: DO THE FOLLOWING DEEP BREATHING: Sit down!.!.!.!.Inhale thru your mouth; exhale thru your mouth; rest!.
Each for a count of 3!. Do for 5 minutes at a time!.
Make sure your stomach inflates when inhaling & deflates when you're exhaling!.

Repeat to yourself, "This will stop"; "I am Okay"!. "I can breathe"!.

If this relieves your symptoms, you were probably having a panic attack!.
Panic attacks usually also include the feeling they will never end & that you feel you will die!.

I suggest trying to think back to what you were thinking or feeling when it started!.!.!.keep track of your anxiety & try to sort out the underlying fears causing the anxiety!.

You might seek out the assistance of a professional social worker or psychologist to help you in this endeavor!.

Go to your MD & get an EKG to rule out heart involvement!.

Good luck to you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Definitely a panic attack!. The tightening in the chest and difficulty breathing are tall tale signs!. No need to go to the hospital; it's severe anxiety!.

Heart attacks can sometimes send radiating pain down the left arm!. Some people feel nothing at all!.
