Variable: Symptoms vary from person to person men and women. Classic symptoms include pressure or squeezing pain which moves to arm, neck, and/or jaw. Shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting, sweating, and/or flush face often accompany. Some have just sob or sharp pain. Some gas pain. Dizziness or just fatigue. Some have no symptoms at all. If you have risks then follow up with a doctor is most important.
