Late yesterday a female employee at work had a heart attack.

Heart attacks occur differently in women then men.

Here are some of the signs:

Q:What are some symptoms of heart attacks in women?

A: Quick Answer
Nausea and vomiting, shortness of breath, unusual fatigue, dizziness and pain radiating to the abdomen, back shoulders, jaw or neck are symptoms of heart attacks in women, states Mayo Clinic. While the most common symptoms are chest pain and pressure, these symptoms may not be as prominent in women.

Heart attack symptoms in women may seem to masquerade as other conditions, according to WebMD. For example, stomach pain associated with a heart attack may be brushed off as heartburn or a stomach ulcer. Breaking out into a cold sweat with nausea and lightheadedness may be passed off as simple anxiety.

I would like to add that my grandmother had a heart attack about two years ago. Her symptoms were a pain in her ear and dizziness as well as a weakness in one arm and of course chest pains.

Woman I work with thought it was food poisoning.

Noticed some oddness in her hearing while driving home.

Turned out to be a heart attack.

Just saying...

Yes these are also symptoms. So do pay attention to those around you and yourself. :)
