Heart Attack Red Flags For Women: 16 Signs Women Should Watch Out For

6. Feeling Utterly Exhausted

Exhaustion is a predecessor for a number of issues, and unfortunately having a heart attack is one of them. Many women share that they were feeling extremely tired or exhausted before having an attack. A number shared that they noticed difficulty doing normal everyday activities because they got tired so quickly, even causing some to break a sweat. Some claim it was a sudden tiredness, while others shared that it was a persistent tiredness over a number of days or weeks before their heart attack. If you notice you’ve been extra tired or lack energy to do things that you did normally that now need much more effort, speak to your doctor about the possibility of heart disease and the chances that it will lead to a heart attack later on.
