My mom worked for 25 years as an ER nurse and is convinced that a lot of women die simply because folks only know heart attack symptoms that occur in males.

A woman I worked for had a heart attack at work, I was right there— and she thought she was coming down with the flu, since she was lightheaded with back pain and nausea. She had no idea until she went to a doc-in-the-box. They ran an EKG and immediately sent her off to the ER, and thankfully she was okay. So there you go, real life example: we need to talk more about heart attack symptoms in women.
