- Ronny Jo couldn't sleep one night due to chest and arm pain and nausea. Not wanting to wake her daughter, she called a friend to come help her. After investigating her symptoms, she realized she may be having a heart attack, but still kept thinking "This can't be a heart attack".
Heart attack symptoms can be atypical for women. Be aware of the signs and symptoms so you know when to call 9-1-1. Learn more here: goo.gl/entpa9

Thank God you got the help you needed! Dr. Sharma and all members of your medical team are angels. God bless!
I have terrible chest, arm and back pain but my EKG and chest X-ray came back normal. It’s been going on for four years. I used to run 15 miles a day and now I can barely walk one without feeling Winded.
Each time I got to the hospital they tell me everything looks okay so I just feel like it’s useless to go anywhere.
You should google Erin ivory from Wgn
She had problems for years before they found her problems

You might have anxiety too
It seems that EKG's are useless in terms of diagnosing heart attacks, so why are they still used for this purpose?
Thanks for your comment. EKG's only give a snapshot at an instant. Heart attacks can take a while to show in an EKG. So to diagnose one, doctors rely on many tests in addition to listening to the patient’s history. Putting it all together is part of the art of medicine. At the end of the day, EKG's are one of many tools we use to provide the best possible care to cardiac patients.
But is it the 'best possible care' if someone has an EKG which doesn't register any issue and the person is sent away, only to die later?
We rely on more than an EKG test to properly detect and treat possible heart attacks. Unfortunately, there's not one truly perfect test currently. We would definitely encourage you to talk to your specific primary care provider, however, if you have further questions. Hope that helps, and thank you for your comments.
Thanks. I'm referring to the many video's I've watched on here on heart attacks where people have said they were in the middle of a heart attack and the EKG didn't show this. They were then sent away. My EKG actually came back borderline so I am being sent for an echocardiogram.
They are tough to interpret and medical personnel can frequently miss subtle signs. Google "Dr Smith's ECG Blog" and they go over how complicated examples can be. Waiting for troponin levels can be too late, the damage is done. A good ECG reader can be a life-saver.
Ok so these are the things that really get my anxiety up. Her ekg came
Back fine, but then the ultrasound showed a completely different outcome. This scares me. I need to know if she had lifestyle factors that contributed to a 100% blockage.. surely you don’t get a full blockage by living a healthy lifestyle.
Almost everything you said happened to me. 1 month ago. All I was doing was watching tv and just felt weird and like you I googled symptoms and was shocked that what I was reading, I didn’t actually feel anything in my chest, it was everywhere else from the chest up, back of my arms, head ache, jaw pain and a radiating feeling… cold sweats and fatigue. I had two blockages 1 97% (widow maker) and the other 100% had two stents placed during angioplasty. Haven’t felt exactly perfect, but I am getting there. I have started a new job though and i seem ok at work.
Dude I've felt like this three times and they've sent me back home from ER saying that I'm ok and that nothing showed up in the analysis. They've appointed me to a cardiologist but for now I don't know what to think. So far I've had heart palpitations, my back between the shoulders blades with a tingling sensation, chest discomfort, cold sweat, breathlessness, and sensation that I'm gonna faint. Maybe I'm just going crazy.
@@vicnie1I’ve been have the same problem for about 2 weeks every, it’s been pretty scary.
@@outragedartz6187 turns out it's a panic attack, that's why my heart was going crazy 🙃. Don't search anything in Google dude, it only gets you worried. Pray and be with your family and friends it helps a lot. Stress doesn't help so just don't worry, everything's gonna be alright I promise. If you need to talk let me know.
@@vicnie1 yeah that’s what I’ve been doing, still able to play soccer so I’m just happy about that.
Sorry but ekgs don’t do a lot to diagnose heart attacks. My dad was diagnosed with a heart attack, not sure of it was from ekg. But there needs to be a faster more useful method instead of ekg to diagnose it.
.Before one month i got heart attack. I went to saw famous hospital in coimbatore.they said nothing to worry and gave me single tablet.after a month i had a heart attack. 😢😢😢
How old are you?
Same but are u still good?
we have the same i always keep tired everyday and i sleep at 12:15 and i got an heart attack and my heart was beating fast and it went gone
I had an heart attack for like an 1 year now and i didnt tell my parents but my heart was okay and Then after everyday i keep tired and my stomach hurts sometimes and i have an anxiety and i was scared of it then now last month i had an heart attack my heart beating fast and then it went go away for some reason and idk what to do and im scared😞😔
That’s an SVT attack I get those it has something to do with anxiety sometimes
@@PedroPerez-oy9ho oh ok thank you!
U didn’t have a heart attack just a panic attack I have them also it sucks
I had jaw pain in the gym. I finished my workout and went home and the pain subsided after I took a pain killer. Fastforward 6 months later, went for a routine checkup and they told me I must have had multiple attacks over the span of the last year. 100% block on one artery and 90% on another. Its all stented now. Point being, the pain was weird when it came, but I convinced myself that I was super fit and it cannot be heart attack. Dont make that mistake. I think ECG test costs so less, and its a life saver.
What test did they do to see you had a blockage?
@@johnnieboy66 electro cardio gram confirmed that the heart beat was not good. Followed by angiogram which showed the block %
so it was a case of angina ?
No
Good Ol Doctor Google
I agree, ....ekgs are useless. Mine showed normal sinus rythum too but, they said I was not nor did I have a heart attack. They tried to knock it of as throughout needed to maybe have an EGD by a Gastroenterologist. The only thing I didn't do wad perfume sweating.
Mine all started with that crazy Cpap machine!!! Now I’m scared of doctors and going to the hospital. 2nd heart attack in 2 weeks when I was sleeping and dreaming
Wait what??? What do you mean what happen with that thing isn’t it supposed. To help you sleep
It's been two years but so curious about this....
QUESTO è un'ART ATTACK
Did you have high blood pressure? Are you over weight?
I dont trust ekg
EKG is only a piece of the puzzle when it comes to detecting heart issues. Fortunately, we have many other tests and tools, along with reviewing a patient's history and symptoms to help us identify heart attacks, conditions and determine treatment.
@@TheMosaicLifeCare I done had stress test and ekogram I truly believe I have an undetected heart condition
We would recommend following up with your primary care provider to discuss your symptoms if you believe you have a heart condition. From there, they could possibly have you follow up with a cardiologist.
@@TheMosaicLifeCare I was in a scary situation this morning. I drove to the store and by time I got their and parked I began having squeezing discomfort that had me grab my chest and it lasted 6 min. It did let up and I made my way home. That was the first time ever I considered dialing 911 I do have family history of heart disease
Sounds like covid
EKG is very worthless
