I received an e-mail about what to do if you are all alone and you are having a heart attack.?

I received this same email and I showed it to my husband that is a Paramedic.  He said it wouldn't work.

Wow.  I can honestly say that I haven't a clue what's going on here.  Clearly, you're mad about something.  I truly hope whatever it is either gets better or dies because you're going to give yourself a heart attack--and certainly none of us would want that.

you should see your doctor to rule out something serious. They will make sure it's not your heart.

If you're really that worried, hiei4212, ring 911. Tell them it's a possible (preventable) suicide or self-injury. I can't believe people haven't said this already. Gee! Call now!

Yes, do go to the emergency room if you can drive, or have someone drive you.  Otherwise call 911.  I had a silent heart attack in my 30's, so minor pain could indicate one too.  At the hospital a blood test will reveal certain elevated enzymes if you're having a heart attack.  Don't take any chances.  I felt silly calling 911, but otherwise would have died, because I had to be defibrillated.  Better safe than sorry, so please go!

be yourself.  You know what, it is very dangerous giving your e mail away like that. I wouldn't suggest doing that. That is just friendly advice from someone who cares about the safety and welfare of others

look i'm 18 years old and i've had chest pain since i was like 7 or 8 anyway i know how you feel not knowing what's wrong. i've been told it was caused by lifting stuff i'd strained/streched some muscles in my chest, i slept wrong, that they're panic attacks, it was caused by coughing due to a cold, that i had plorisy (or however you spell it), no one to this day can tell me what's wrong. i've been through the blood work, ekg's, ect. and they can't find anything wrong. i think it because when they schedule these things, during the time of having them done i'm not having the pain, so i guess that's why the basiclly tell me that it's all in my head. but hey i'm here for ya. it might take a while but in time they'll find out it's not all in out heads. in the mean time if you need omeone to talk to that understands the pain e-mail me at wolfspan16@yahoo.com . good luck though i know how painful they can be.

The  truly  sad thing  about situations like this  is  that  the  patient -  more often a man - has already  been  having  symptoms for a  while.      His heart has been  trying to g et his  attention with little signals that he has just refused to pay  attention to.    Heart  attack?   Me?    Nahhh.      I'm  not old enough.....  or....   I   feel  great  etc. etc.       That's the  way heart  attacks work.   My bet  is  that he has never had  a  thorough  physical  examination and heart  evaluation in his life\n                              It's too late now, of course, to be looking into  the past.  It's over.    Only  what happens in the future is important.      The  only  thing YOU  can do right now  is take   some  flowers,  and yourself  to the hospital to see him,  and  say all the right things, about how  important it is for him to get  well so he can as soon as possible  get back to his  family that loves him and  needs  him.        Now  what your friend,  his  daughter, can do is a  LOT.     She has  to  help her mother  and other members of the family  to  bully  the heck out of him  to  start   properly  taking  care of himself  for  a change.  He obviously  hasn't   been doing that  because he already knew his cholesterol  was way  up and  did nothing  about it.    Your  friend  needs to  remind her  Dad  that  she needs him,    and  they all do,  and,  goshdarn it, if he doesn't want to   look after his own health for  him,  he should  do it  for  THEM.                    \n                                 The doctors will have run some tests to  determine if  he has some blockages  (my bet is  that he has)   and then make arrangements for him to have  appropriate   treatment. (probably surgery).    After that,  he is going to need to follow strict  doctor's orders,  change his lifestyle, and  stop  neglecting  his health.   If  he  does that,  he has every good chance of being around for a  long time.    Unfortunately men  are   especially bad at  taking  care of  their health.    I guess it's a macho thing.   "I'm  not  going to  get sick.    Nothing wrong  with me.    I'm  tough"      LOL  I wish I had  a  $20  bill for every  time I heard  a man  say that,  or had  some  woman tell me  that  was how her husband  was\n                                   I hope  this helps.    Tell your friend what I  said, and  tell her to tell him  that she wants her Dad  to be  around to  walk her down the Aisle one day,  and  after that,  to be a part of his  grandchildren's  lives.    Tell her to tell him,  that's not a  request,  that's  an order.

It is always best to get checked out at the hospital, if you don't get checked you could die. \n\nMost likely you are right. It was probably just shock. keep yourself warm and try to relax. Sip some water but don't drink lots of it. \n\nYou can monitor yourself or have someone hang with you while you rest. IF you start feeling any weird symptoms get to the hospital right away.

you definitly have a reason to be upset, like you said you are always considerate to others and care for them, they should have done the same for you or just rang to see if you were okay.  People do have their own lives to lead but honestly, how long does it take to make a phone call just to check up?\nIf i were you i wouldn't ring or mail until they are bothered by you not checking up on them and then when they do ring tell them that you felt you were being left to go alone and no one wanted to know.  Hopefully then they will realise you were hurt by this and they will then see they have been inconsiderate towards you.

It is impossible to give safe advice based on such limited info. But any irregular heart beat that is "continuous" and makes you feel bad should be evaluated= go NOW

You should talk to your doctor to be cleared to do strenuous exercises. He may have you start slow, and work up to something more strenuous. You definately don't want to cause yourself to have a heart attack or something.

You are not too young to have a heart attack.\n\nEspecially because you note that you are prescribed blood pressure medicine.. which is an associated risk, and leads me to think there may be other factors (hereditary) involved also.\n\nYou should call 911 and be transported by an ambulance to the hospital.  \n\nIf you are uncomfortable with this, call the ER and ask to talk with the Triage Nurse.  The Nurse will best advise you.\n\nHave a friend or family member drive you to the hospital.\n\nAt the very least, you will receive more blood pressure medicine, and assurance that you are okay.\n\nGood luck & Be Well :-)
