Every year, approximately 785,000 Americans suffer a first heart attack. And 470,000 who’ve already had one or more heart attacks have another one. The scary thing is that 25 percent of ALL heart attacks happen “silently,” without clear or obvious symptoms.

Even when symptoms occur, they can be so mild or vague, most people don’t even realize it’s heart-related (unless they are made aware). Four things in particular are the most sinister signs of a silent heart attack.

These four things are the focus of a recent video presentation by renowned cardiovascular expert Dr. Chauncey Crandall: Silent Heart Attacks: A Special Newsmax Heart Health Report. According to Dr. Crandall, the reason silent heart attacks go untreated is because people don’t even notice the symptoms, so he created a special video presentation to show the four things to look for that may be a silent warning — before it’s too late to intervene and survive the damage.


One-Two-Three-Four-Dead

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A wind came from the wilderness and it carried me where a man could never reach alone

What four things?? Did I miss something?

Four steps before heart attack,

Step One: Get laid off
Step Two: Chick says she's pregnant
Step Three: Lose home to foreclosure fraud
Step Four: Baby is part black

Now comes the HEART ATTACK!!!

I believe these are the most common signs of an impending heart attack.

I think I'm having a heart attack

I got the family meal from Bojangles last night----12 piece chicken, three large fries, biscuits, and a half a gallon of sweet tea---it was the saddest thing that ever happened anywhere.

I don't have a family.

but I ordered the 'family' meal.

maybe the lowest point of my life so far.

1. Drive to Md.
2. Stop at Bojangles and order the family meal.
3. Get in a fight with the guy behind the counter because your chicken is over
cooked & greasy.
4. Drive back to Va. and eat it anyway.

surprise,
fear, and
almost fanatical devotion to the pope.

I'll save everyone the trouble of having to sit through this mind-numbingly bad monotone sales pitch.

The four things are:

Chest discomfort. Most heart attacks involve discomfort in the center of the chest that lasts for more than a few minutes, or goes away and comes back. The discomfort can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness, or pain.

Discomfort in other areas of the upper body. Can include pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw, or stomach.

Shortness of breath. Often comes along with chest discomfort. But it also can occur before chest discomfort.

Other symptoms. May include breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea, or light-headedness

To prevent heart attacks,cut back on fat intake but most importantly, cut back on sugar.

My girlfriend experiences discomfort in her neck and jaw often. Could she be having a heart attack?

Thanks, I couldn't stand another minute of that monotone, dry, sales pitch. I think.....wait a minute, I'm having some chest pain....breaking out in a sweat... what the ......?............................................................................................................................................................a'S,,,,,,,,,V

the first thing you need to do if you have those symptoms is to chew up a couple aspirin to thin your blood

anyone at risk should carry them at all times

I had a heart attack four yrs. ago, not a fun experience.

Thanks Trog; Your's was the first text I was able to find on google that revealed Crandall's 4 things. 'Nothing I didn't already know & I couldn't stand the stupid and apparently endless video.

If he really cared about saving people from heart attacks he would have presented a print version. -but No, somewhere I was sure a time share offer or indexed annuity fund pitch was going to show up.

How it got directed from Field & Stream Magazine, and endorsed by NewsMax I'll never know.

Thanks Trog!! Greatly appreciated. I had severe indigestion last week and thought I was in deep trouble when the coldsweat broke out. Heartburn pill made it all go away very quickly. Is there any way to distinguish between the two? I mean what if I hadn't had heartburn relief with me?

Thank greatly, trogdor.

The only thing I learned before the video rebooted my system (perhaps after planting a keystroke capture bug or a screen scraper) was how great they thought the Doctor is.

He must be really great for as long as they discussed just that.

sex
drugs
exercise
internet rant

a nice large dose of aspirin aught to do the trick

I'm coming to see you Elizabeth

Yes.... thanks to the kind person who posted details, saving me the boring wait for a sales pitch.... and the chuckles!

Ditto what Cheerios said....

the symptoms Trog listed are the same as angina...I've had angina bad a few times but I've never been to a doctor. From what I've read, the main difference that you feel between angina and a heart attack is severe pain.

Those are symptoms that you feel WHILE you're having the angina (or heart) attack though, not really before it.

(and why did Dr. Crandall mention a left shoulder pain a few times before he had his attack? IS that a sign? The video is indeed long-winded, I din't make it through the entire thing).

Thanks for the info Trogdor! Just a note to all the women out there. Hot flashes can be wicked and frightening as well. They can come on so fast and unexpected and can make one worry they are having a heartattack.

Thanks for just giving us the 4 things...They were not revealing at all. What a piece of crap that Doctor is.

1. see black man in a dark hoodie from 100 yards away.
2. same man 50 yards away.
3. same man 20 yards away.
4. he starts running towards you at a full sprint.

I know what will happen before my heart attack. Doreen Genstler is going to say "Obama wins a second term" I coming Elizabeth!????

1) Recognition/denial
2) Recognition/denial
3) Recognition/denial
4) Recognition/denial
Finally...Heart attack/acceptance

Thank you! I googled this guy and a ton of people seem to think he's a scam artist, so I will pass on the sales pitch.

weakness on the right side
memory loss
slurring of speech

It is appointed unto man once to die and after that the judgement."To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord"

and ruthless efficiency

1. Pain in arm.
2. Pain in chest.
3. Shortness of breath.
4. CAPS LOCK ENGAGES!

Mitt Romney won election black people and the poor white trash don't stand a chance, white. People trying to be black, and the white folks trying to bring back slavery boom heart attack

More likely she finds you a pain in the neck.

Kidding. Good you're concerned. Get her a stress test.

EXCELLENT INFORMATION.

Women often have jaw and tooth-ache type pain, and not chest pain. Many women actually go to the dentist instead of the emergency room. If you think you are having a heart attack, immediately take 2-3 aspirin pills (preferably chewable baby aspirin, absorbs much more quickly into the blood) and call 911.

And . . .

Always, Always call 911. They will take you to the hospital and communicate with the Emergency Room you are coming and their Cardiologist and staff will be waiting for you.

If you drive yourself and show up in the Emergency Room, no one will be expecting you and you will lose valuable time.

Time REALLY matters so the Doctor's can save you from losing heart muscle and possibly your life.

Remember, tell your family to always call 911. I work for a hospital/School of Medicine and I know.

aspirin slows the clotting process, giving the paramedics time to get to you. everything the ER can do, paramedics can do. wait where you are. call 911. the paramedics will give you "clot buster" and transport to the Inova Fairfax cath lab. my dad had a heart attack about 7 years ago, in Centreville, about 8am at home. the paramedics gave him the clot buster in the driveway. they would have flow him by helicopter to Inova Fairfax but it was overcast. they had to drive in him in rush hour traffic all the way there in an ambulance. got into the cath lab and put a stent in. there are advantages to living near good hospitals and not out in the sticks somewhere.
Attachments:

Thanks. There was no way I was gonna sit through the Doc's bio. Please. I would die of heart attack before I found out I was dying of a heart attack.

That's because she's been suckin that D like no other. Workin hard for her money I see.

What's a heart attack? Is that when you are humped by a group of other hearts?

No stupid, it's when the group Heart attacks you backstage at their show.. This is gonna be cool!

Bro thats hilarious!

I had what is known as a "silent heart attack" last year. Absolutely no symptoms, just felt like the flu or dehydration beforehand. Co-workers said I suddenly got very greyish looking and they called ambulance. Woke up in heart surgery recovery room. Thankfully, many very caring people were there for me and realized how serious my situation was...

I also thought I was having a heart attack, but it turned out to be a side effect of irresponsible fisting.

Just 41, I am glad you are ok. Make sure you drink Welches Grape Juice with Concord Grapes on a regular basis.

Boring speech about the doctor lasting a long time. I stayed on for quite a while until I was really mad and turned it off.

I had a bad heart attack in my thirties after a minor female problem thought to be brought on from Birth Control pills. I had a D & C at hospital, and came home the next day. I was fine, and about to go out to lunch with a friend, when it struck. No warning. I don't remember a thing. Next thing I knew I woke up in the hospital 2 days later and was told what happened. I was in hospital for a month, and still don't remember any fore-warnings, that I've read here. I'm sure I was in pain because my daughter told me that I said I was, and told her to call a doctor right away. I don't remember anything else. I was told friend drove me to the hospital. When I woke up, I still couldn't remember what happened. I refused to believe I had a heart attack and was unconscious off and on for two days.

That's SO much for all those who posted "Four Things" (though nothing we didn' already know). Like MOST docs out there this guy is WAY too full of himself!!

Thank you, Trogdor. It is nearly immoral that any doctor with such information should put himself between the general public and its base needs. I'm going to finally rise above this sugar fix that I've been force-fed since early childhood. God bless you, seriously!

*U r in a middle of sumthing
**u r abt 2 hav a heart attack
***u r still abt 2 hav a heart attack
****u hav a heart attack

Do we have to watch this ever-on-going video before he operates on us too?
If the guy cared about his patients he would give the signs first, then explain about his 40,000 operastions and finally pitch his book etc.
I got discomfort in my arms, legs, back, neck and especially chest--- shortness of breath--- cold sweats just from watching his video....
