Question 2

a few days ago my chest started to feel sore in the middle sometimes when i move it hurts more ,could this be signs of heart attack or stroke?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely : At your age stroke or heart attack would be very rare. More likely you strained a muscle or ligament and it hits when you move it. If it doesn’t get better in the next few days have a doctor look at it.

Question 3

lately my left arm elbow been twitching i thibk its a vain i am 32 male 57 145 pounds this a sign of a heart attack or a stroke coming soon?

Accepted Answer

Twitching: Twitching alone within an extremity is not a reasonable indication of a heart attack or stroke. While it is possible to have either at 33 your age makes this less likely without a family history of this and especially without any other symptoms. If the twitching persists discuss it with your doctor. Generally twitching is not a concern but in rare cases it could be something more serious like MS.

Question 4

what are the signs when you get a heart attack and stroke?

Accepted Answer

Heart attack : Heart attack: pain chest, arm, jaw, back. Fatigue, shortness of breath. 
Stroke: paralysis, numbness, facial droop. Altered speech etc.

Question 5

what are the signs of a stroke or light heart attack?

Accepted Answer

Very different: A stroke usually will cause slurred speech or a weakness in an arm or leg. A heart attack usually causes chest pain & shortness of breath.

Question 6

what are the signs that someone might be having a heart attack, stroke, seizure, or is fainting. what is the appropriate response?

Accepted Answer

Basic life support: Make sure their airway is clear, lie them flat and yell for help. Call 911. If they can talk and have a pulse, hold their hand until the paramedics get there. If they don't have a pulse, start chest compressions. Heart attack patients usually have chest pain, strokes are usually painless (maybe terrible headache) but some part of the body isn't working. Seizures are usually jerking. But you can't.

Question 7

i have a sharp pain coming and going in the left side of my left breast. is this a sign of a heart attack? i have high platelet levels. should be 400 or under. mine are 560 something. so risk of heart attack/stroke etc. i'm 27 year old female?

Accepted Answer

: It is not feasible to provide an opinion without additional history, physical examination may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor to see if you may be depressed. Depression is treatable. Counter-intuitive as it may seem, exercise may help. Start with low intensity exercise such as walking and gradually increase the intensity as tolerated. Drink more water. Wish you good health!

Question 8

is intermittent tingling on two fingers and a pressure feeling on the tip of thumb on my left hand a sign of impending stroke or heart attack?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: This may be related to a nerve compression syndrome, but TIA or atypical angina need to be considered.  See your doc to get it checked out.

Question 9

can you develop chronic belching after a heart attack or a heart failure?

Accepted Answer

: You could if you develop a nervous habit of swallowing air. Heart attack or heart failure per se would not cause belching.
Wish you good health!
