Still others deny the pain altogether. The pain may spread to your shoulders, neck jaw or arms. The discomfort lasts for more than 2 minutes. You may also have sweating, dizziness, fainting, nausea, vomiting or severe indigestion. Shortness of breath is also common.
Symptoms are individual for each person.
You may have 1 or 2 of the symptoms listed or several symptoms all at once. If you have a heart attack or experience symptoms, you need immediate and accurate diagnosis and treatment.
