Heart Attack Warning Signs In Women

Nausea And Vomiting

Women who have experienced a heart attack often report they felt significant nausea as well as vomiting. Of course, nausea and vomiting could indicate many things, such as food poisoning or the flu, and may not be a heart attack. One of the keys to determining if these symptoms could be indicating a heart attack is the presence of other symptoms such as shortness of breath, pain or pressure in the chest, and a cold sweat. There should also be no other discernible cause of nausea or vomiting. If both of these apply, seek medical attention quickly as it could likely be a heart attack.
