Avvertimenti silenziosi: a cosa fare attenzione prima di un infarto (e quando chiedere aiuto)

arm

Neck

Jaw (especially in women)

Upper back or shoulders

💡 Jaw pain during activity? Don’t assume it’s dental.

It could be cardiac.

 

5. Nausea, Indigestion, or Dizziness

You feel like you’re coming down with the flu — but there’s no fever.

 

Upset stomach

Acid reflux

Nausea or vomiting

Cold sweats

Lightheadedness

These are common in women — and often mistaken for indigestion.

 

But when paired with fatigue or shortness of breath?

 

It’s time to take it seriously.

 

6. Sleep Disturbances

Suddenly, you can’t sleep — or you wake up gasping.

 

New or worsening insomnia

Waking up drenched in sweat

Gasping for air at night (a sign of fluid buildup)

This can be a sign your heart isn’t pumping efficiently — especially when lying flat.

 

7. Anxiety or a Sense of Doom

Some people describe it as a sudden, unexplained panic — not tied to stress or mental health.
