1. Difficulty Breathing
Shortness of breath, especially without exertion, can indicate that your heart is struggling to pump blood efficiently. This can be a sign of inadequate oxygenation and may precede a heart attack. If you experience unexplained difficulty breathing, it’s important to seek medical attention promptly.
2. Cold or Flu-Like Symptoms
Many people report experiencing cold or flu symptoms, such as fatigue, body aches, and chest discomfort, before a heart attack. While these symptoms are common with less serious conditions, if they persist or worsen, it could indicate a looming heart issue.
