Heart Attack Warning Signs

Ian del Conde, Cardiovascular Specialist at Miami Cardiac and Vascular Institute says the most common symptom of a heart attack will be some discomfort in the chest. "I don't like to say chest pain because pain has a very specific meaning or connotation, but it could be heaviness, pressure, in the chest area", he points out. Other signs of having a heart attack are sweating, nausea, lightheadedness and profound fatigue.
