My Mom has had a couple of Heart Attacks.
Heart Attack; tightening or pain in entire chest, pain in left arm, pain in jaw either entire or left side, pain in left shoulder
Gas; Burning sensation more than pain, but pain also possible in entire chest, seldom or never in arm, shoulder or jaw
are you ok??

You walk in say "I think I might be having a heart attack" And faint
4 minutes tops to be treated.

Those are classic heart attack signs. Could also be gallstones. Pop a few asprins and get off to the hospital asap. GB

It's been good to know ya
Get going Luv but before you do type "bye" so that we know you are leaving and not anything else wrong.
Get to an E.R. ... STAT!
This is no way to diagnose chest pain. Get to an E.R. immediately.
Unless you have been advised differently by your physician in the past, take an aspirin before you leave. And bring any medications that you are currently taking.
Any patient presenting to an E.R. with chest pain will receive an ECG and a chest x-ray, as well as have blood samples taken, in additional to a physical examination.
You will be asked about the location of the pain, its quality (burning, stabbing, crushing, etc.), its severity (1 to 10), and if it seems to be radiating anywhere (e.g. back, arm, jaw), worse with exertion, among other questions (e.g. profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting) as well as your past medical history.
Women and diabetics who are having a heart attack have been known to present differently - no or less pain, pain not in the centre of the chest. It's irrelevant. Just get to an E.R. if you are having chest pain that is concerning you. Do it now.

If the pain has lasted for hours you should call for an ambulance
luv4lust said:funny thing i can't afford an ambulance fuck fuck fuck FUCKKKKKKKKK
My bet is you can afford that more then a heart attack
Go to www.americanheart.org they list sysptoms for all types, arest attack stroke etc. Gen up then call back to the Ontario health number.
Just call 9-1-1
If you need an ambulance, call 9-1-1 and tell them you have had several hours of chest pain that has not resolved and that you can feel it radiating to your back and shoulder. They will act as quickly as possible, and you will get seen at whatever hospital they deliver you to.
