Did you know that the main cause of death in
the US are heart attacks? The stressful way of life and the junk food we keep
eating is a great contributor for this illness becoming so common and so
dangerous over the last years.
Leading a healthy lifestyle and trying to
decrease the levels of stress in your life can help protect you from heart
failure, but another thing that can be very useful, even lifesaving, is knowing
the symptoms of heart failure a month before it happens.
These are the symptoms that you might have a
heart attack in a month. Make sure you always treat these as red flags.
01. FATIGUE
When the arteries become narrow your heart
receives a lot less blood than it is used to. This makes the heart work a whole
lot harder than it normally would have to, leaving you feeling overly tired and
drowsy just about all of the time.
02. SHORTNESS OF BREATH
When your heart is getting less blood this
means it your lungs are not going to be able to get as much oxygen to the lungs
as you normally would. The two systems depend on one another so without one you
can’t have the other. If you have been having trouble breathing it is best to
consult a doctor as soon as possible, this could mean it is getting close to
time for your attack.
03. WEAKNESS
When your body becomes weak, all of a sudden
it is because the arteries becoming more narrow are not allowing blood
circulation properly. Your muscles aren’t getting what they need, and this
could cause you to fall even for what may seem like at first no reason so be
especially careful.
04. DIZZINESS AND COLD SWEATS
The poor circulations is also causing the
blood flow to your brain to be restricted. This is very life threatening. This
will at first cause dizziness and clamminess. You should not ignore this.
05. CHEST PRESSURE
If you are having onset symptoms of a heart
attack chances are you have been experiencing discomfort in your chest, whether
it’s minor pain or built-up pressure.This will constantly increase until the
attack itself happens.
06. FLU OR COLD SYMPTOMS
If you feel as if you are having flu symptoms
out of nowhere this could be because the attack itself is about to happen
within the near future. Many people feel they have developed a cold just days
before their attacks.
How to handle this:
If you or someone you know is experiencing
these symptoms, please see a doctor as soon as possible. The best way to
prevent a heart attack is by noticing the symptoms early on.
