Hi! I have angina, but my condition is stable. But I know something about symptoms of heart issue. There are some warning signs off heart problems. They include: chest discomfort, discomfort in other areas of the upper body, shortness of breath. Most heart attacks involve discomfort in the center of the chest that lasts more than a few minutes, or that goes away and comes back. It can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain. Symptoms can include pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach. Shortness of breath may occur with or without chest discomfort. Other signs may include breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness. If you have chest discomfort, especially with one or more of the other signs you should call emergency medicine service.
