Could Aspiration While Sleeping And Pain In Chest Be The Symptoms Of Heart Stroke?

i dont know if i am having a heart attack I am 41 female and i aspirated 3 times in my sleep but luckily i woke strangled but couldnt sleep for the feeling of smothering i have been having chest pain in middle of chest and also under breast but also had this chest problem last year with no reason behind it. I am miserable but reluctant to go sit in the ER for them to send me home again with no answer.

Hello,

Welcome to Health Care Magic.

Thanks for writing.

I am Dr.Nitasha Khan. I have read you question completely, i understand your concern and will try to help you in best way possible.

you are definatly not having heart stroke because aspiration during sleep can not cause it asipration might cause chest syptoms like cough and sore throat also if you are having chest pain and ecg is normal than its prolly muscular pain get some pain killers and observe even after that if it continues get an xray chest and do an ett .....you wil be fine
