World Health Organization reports ischaemic heart disease to be the leading cause of death worldwide, with the number of deaths due to cardiovascular diseases in 2019 being 8.9 million.
According to research, in the days or months leading up to a heart attack, people experience certain symptoms known as prodromal symptoms.
A research published in The National Library of Medicine, states that the prodromal symptoms are often overlooked by patients and primary clinicians.
Some of those symptoms “include chest pain, chest heaviness, chest burning, palpitations, fatigue, sleep disturbance, shortness of breath (SOB), dizziness, anxiety, sudden heat or cold, back pain, and vomiting.”
1. Fatigue
Being extremely tired, sleepy, exhausted or lacking energy to perform even the slightest of tasks can be a sign of fatigue. One of the reasons it may affect a person are the lowered levels of blood that go to the heart. This usually takes place when arteries get narrowed. Fatigue can easily happen if someone experiences heart issues.
