Know the Signs of a Heart Attack in Women

Many women don't seek prompt treatment for a heart attack because the signs are different in women than the "classic" crushing chest pain in men. A woman is more likely to experience shortness of breath, weakness and unusual fatigue when having a heart attack. If you have any of these symptoms, call an ambulance immediately.
