"A classmate of mine, only 27 years old this year, just passed away yesterday, happened at 1-2 o'clock in the morning, and I didn't have time to call a doctor, but I couldn't tell whether my stomach hurt or my heart hurt before, because I was young, I didn't care. ”
"Half a year ago, my husband had a heart attack, and there were no symptoms in the first few days, but in the first few months of the disease, there were several unexplained pains, just ten seconds, and he felt that it was a mistake, so he didn't take it seriously!"
Every time I see such a message, it makes people feel sorry, they are all young people, and they still have a chance to save their lives, just because they are careless, negligent, and then they put their lives into it.
I have seen a lot of patients who died of sudden myocardial infarction, and I have shared a lot, not trying to prevent all the tragedies from happening, but only hoping to affect one person is one person, even if it is just a little impression, I can remember it when it is useful, make the right treatment, and save myself or others' lives.
Let's start by sharing a real case.
"I always felt that death was far away from me, until I was widowed and became a widow overnight, and I realized that death was really close to me!"
This is a quote from the patient's wife. The patient is my distant cousin, who is in his 40s. Anyone who has seen him knows that this person is cheerful, loves to help others, has done a small business by himself, has good popularity, has many friends, and has become the leader of the owners' committee in the community where he lives. As for his body, he looks very strong, but I heard that he has actually had high blood pressure for many years. It doesn't matter, after all, you're still young!
No one would have thought that such a person would suddenly disappear.
According to the patient's wife, on the day of the incident, the patient was doing business as usual and had a drink with the client at noon. In the afternoon, he went back home, saying that he had a stomach ache, and he rested for a while, and his wife went to buy him stomach medicine to eat, and he didn't know if it was good. Anyway, he went out again later, but in fact, his wife didn't take it seriously, thinking that he must have drunk too much at noon. At 9 o'clock that night, his wife also talked to the patient on the phone, saying that she was accompanying the client, and she didn't wait for him, and went to sleep by herself.
Who knows, at about one o'clock in the morning, a phone call woke up his wife, saying that the patient was in the hospital and asked her to go, but the phone did not say anything specific. On the way, my wife was still thinking that she must have drunk her stomach by drinking! At that time, she didn't think about it so much, she only thought that her husband just had a stomachache.
Who would have thought that by the time she arrived at the hospital, the patient had just been pushed out of the emergency room, and the person was gone.
At this time, his wife had not yet recovered from her senses, and once thought that everyone had joined forces to make a joke with her. But when she saw her husband, who was no longer breathing, she realized that her husband was really gone.
The patient's wife also told me a lot, in addition to grief, that is, regret. However, it was too late.
In fact, tragedies like this happen every day, and in the final analysis, it is because of the negligence of the patients.
Be vigilant: a stomach ache can also be a heart attack!
Some myocardial infarctions may have stomach pain at the onset of the disease, which is actually a kind of radiation pain, because the human heart and stomach will be regulated by autonomic nerves, and there is also a nerve connection between the two, so the pain caused by the occurrence of myocardial infarction may be transmitted to the stomach, resulting in stomach pain, but this stomach pain is different from stomach pain caused by stomach disease.
1. Location of pain: Stomach pain caused by myocardial infarction is usually located in the anterior chest area or upper abdomen, while common stomach pain is usually in the upper abdomen or periumbilical region.
2. Nature of pain: Stomach pain caused by myocardial infarction is continuous, squeezing-like pain, the pain is more intense, lasts longer, and cannot be relieved by taking stomach medicine, while ordinary stomach pain is paroxysmal, short in duration, manifested as dull pain or cramping, and the symptoms will be quickly relieved after taking stomach medicine.
3. Accompanying symptoms: When myocardial infarction occurs, it may also be accompanied by symptoms such as sweating, irritability, nausea, vomiting, etc., while ordinary gastric diseases may not only have stomach pain, but also acid reflux, belching, bloating, diarrhea and other discomforts.
In short, the stomach pain caused by myocardial infarction is not unrecognizable, especially for sudden severe pain without a history of gastric disease in the past, we must be vigilant and go to the hospital for an examination as soon as possible to rule out the possibility of myocardial infarction.
When a heart attack occurs, beware of these warning signs!
Myocardial infarction is a common cause of sudden death, because many patients are negligent and delay the onset of the disease, and as a result, the best time for treatment is missed. In fact, the occurrence of a heart attack is not without warning, and once again reminds everyone, especially young people, not to be young and ignore the warning signs sent by the body.
1. Typical presentation
When myocardial infarction occurs, the most typical symptom is angina, which usually occurs in the case of physical activity, full meals, mood swings, etc., the pain is more intense, manifested as squeezing, knife-like pain, accompanied by a strong sense of pressure and suffocation, the pain is located behind the sternum, often affects the entire anterior chest, lasts for more than 15 minutes, and nitroglycerin cannot be relieved. At the same time, it may also be accompanied by chest tightness, dyspnea, palpitation, shortness of breath, sweating, nausea, vomiting, irritability and other manifestations.
2. Atypical presentation
In addition to stomach pain, the pain caused by myocardial infarction may also radiate to other parts, manifested as toothache, jaw pain, throat pain, left shoulder pain, left arm pain, abdominal pain, back pain, etc., and even sometimes patients can not tell where the pain is, at this time it is easy to be ignored or misdiagnosed, for these parts of the sudden pain, and conventional treatment is ineffective, it is necessary to be vigilant. In addition, some patients may only have palpitation, dizziness, etc., which are easy to be ignored at the onset of the disease, and high-risk groups should also be paid attention to.
