- At the onset of heart attack symptoms, you should call 911 and chew one 325 milligram (regular strength) aspirin or four baby aspirin.
- When a man has heart attack symptoms most times it is a crushing pain in the chest and down the arm. When a woman has heart attack symptoms they are not so obvious. They can be as subtle as feeling extreme exhaustion, nausea, indigestion or discomfort between the shoulder blades. By the time women get to the emergency room, it’s often too late. That’s why carrying aspirin with you as a woman is doubly important.
- It’s thinning your blood, so that any clots or blockages can pass. (This is the lifesaving action)
Ladies,
I came across this site that sells a holder for you to always have some aspirins with you. Visit http://www.aspirinpod.com/ to see what the aspirinpod is all about.

About Heart Attacks
There are other symptoms of an heart
attack besides the pain on the left arm.
One must also be aware of an intense
pain on the chin, as well as nausea and lots of sweating, however these
symptoms may also occur less frequently.
Note: There may be NO pain in the chest
during a heart attack
The majority of people (about 60%) who
had a heart attack during their sleep, did not wake up.
However, if it occurs, the chest pain
may wake you up from your deep sleep.
If that happens, immediately dissolve
two aspirins in your mouth and swallow them with a bit of water.
Afterwards: CALL 911
- say "heart attack!"
- say that you have taken 2 aspirins..
- phone a neighbor or a family member
who lives very close by
- take a seat on a chair or sofa near
the front door, and wait for their arrival and...
