Could you have a heart attack if there is only mild chest dicomfort?

Yes: Sometimes, especially in those who have diabetes, there can be minimal or no chest discomfort. Sometimes, it is just shortness of breath. My uncle, god rest his soul, had heartburn symptoms that was actually a heart attack. If you don't feel right, get checked out: 911 or er.
