The NFZ statistics show that every year up to 15 Poles are dying of heart attacks. The most common causes of this disease are hypertension, atherosclerosis, inflammation, but an unhealthy lifestyle, especially severe chronic stress, also plays an important role. What symptoms may herald an impending heart attack? Details on our infographic.
Symptoms of heart attack
Cardiologists emphasize that a heart attack usually occurs suddenly and without warning. However, there are ailments that may foreshadow impending problems. Interestingly, some of them may appear even several weeks before the heart attack.
For example, chest pain often occurs as early as three weeks before a heart attack. In the period preceding the infarction, patients also report:
- excessive sweating
- greater fatigue
- shortness of breath
- palpitations
- problems with sleeping
- stomach pain
- feeling anxious.

You should pay attention to all disturbing ailments, especially if you are already diagnosed with heart problems or, for example, you suffer from hypertension. It may turn out that it is the body that tells you that something is wrong. Do not hesitate and check the condition of the heart as soon as possible. Buy the “Heart Check” blood test package.
It is also important to know that the symptoms of a heart attack differ between men and women. As cardiologists say, in women, infarction is much more often hidden under the mask of gastric ailments – women complain of nausea, bloating, bloating. In men, retrosternal pain is typical and occurs rarely in women (in about 30% of cases).
