Women wait because physicians don’t listen to them. I’m a nurse and I know. Docs need to listen to women who report their symptoms.

I have POTS and anxiety, all those symptoms I deal with regularly.... I will 100% just be dismissed and am full aware that that is a possibility of what kills me one day.

A lot of doctors ignore the reported symptoms and send their patients home until it's more serious

Don't get married, nor have kids, live alone, don't drink alcohol, don't smoke, & keep your personal life to a minimum from others!

I'm 65 and had an M.I. in February due to an existing stent getting blocked. At first I thought it was my acid reflux causing some chest discomfort. It got _waaay_ worse and felt like an elephant was standing on my chest. No other symptoms, just crushing pressure.

Great 👍 shows gives us more knowledge and thinking about Heavenly Things and letting go of the burden and yoke of life’s struggles and less rest! Heavenly Father help the women that need care for their health problems before they are gone back to dust in Jesus of Nazareth name I pray amen 🙏 thank you for Jesus!

طاب يومك ايتها العين القديرة والمقتدرة والسلام عليكم
يسمح للملائكة في الجنة أن تأكل من الطيور مثل الدجاج والبط والوز والديك الرومي ومن الدواب الخراف والغزلان والبقر ومن الأسماك التي ليس لديها اسنان .

I am tired to listen this nonsense. According to research and the personal experience pre menopausal women never have a heart attack.
