You could save your life by recognizing these early symptoms, which are often misdiagnosed as stress, exhaustion, or even indigestion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women, with one person dying from cardiovascular disease every 33 seconds, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CDC states that a myocardial infarction, another name for a heart attack, occurs when a portion of the heart muscle does not receive enough blood. \u201cThe damage to the heart muscle increases with the amount of time that goes by without treatment to restore blood flow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, according to a recent study that was published in the National Library of Medicine, some symptoms appear up to a month prior to the attack, providing people with plenty of time to seek medical attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help you recognize when you are experiencing heart-related problems, let\u2019s go over some of these symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Unusual weariness<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s normal to feel exhausted after a long day, but excessive, inexplicable fatigue? That might be a red flag. Weeks before a heart attack, many women report feeling exhausted, sometimes even in the absence of chest pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Warning indicators:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Even after a full night\u2019s sleep, you\u2019re worn out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You get unusually exhausted from simple activities (like walking or climbing stairs).abrupt, extreme exhaustion that doesn\u2019t go away with rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you experience persistent fatigue, especially when combined with other symptoms, don\u2019t ignore it. Many people write this off as stress or overwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Breathlessness<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your heart may be having trouble if you feel as though you are suddenly out of breath, even if you are not exercising or exerting yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Warning indicators:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>After doing little activity, or even while you\u2019re sleeping, you\u2019re having trouble breathing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You experience dizziness or lightheadedness in addition to dyspnea.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Breathing becomes more difficult when lying down.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Sudden dyspnea may be a sign of an impending heart attack, but it is commonly confused with anxiety, asthma, or a lack of fitness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pain in the chest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The most common sign of a heart attack is chest pain, but it doesn\u2019t always manifest as you might anticipate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Warning indicators:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>a slight constriction, constriction, or pressure in the chest.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instead of being constant, the pain might come and go.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the Mayo Clinic, \u201cindigestion\u201d is another name for heartburn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It doesn\u2019t always feel like the traditional \u201celephant on the chest\u201d sensation that men frequently talk about for women.
