The most common symptoms of heart disease include chest pain or discomfort, shortness of breath, fatigue, and irregular heartbeats. However, some people may experience no symptoms at all, which is why regular check-ups and screenings are important. According to a study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology [https://www.jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacc.2019.03.491], about one-third of heart attacks present with atypical or no symptoms, particularly in women and older adults. It’s crucial to be aware of the warning signs and seek medical attention promptly if you experience any concerning symptoms.
