Is Heart Attack, Symptomatic With Chest Pain And Dizziness?
Hi there I am a 44 year old lady I smoke and drink occasionally. My problem is I've been having chest pains today which is quite worrying the back of my neck is sore when I pull it down to my neck. I took my blood pressure earlier as I'm feeling dizzy and it was 147/90 and pulse 111 and that was resting. My body is cold to touch. I'm asking what it could be as my dad had a heart attack a few years back and I lost my mom 4 months ago to a heart attack
