Coping With Heart Attack

i had a supposed heart attack three years ago. what i mean by supposed,, i did not know i had a heart attack.. i only found out about my heart attack through a blood test three days after the event .. by looking back there were some signs .. on my job as a towie i could not get my truck cradle under a car to tow it away so i had to lift the car by hand a few metres. after lifting the car,, i felt out of breath and i could not stop sweating. i went back to base and i felt sick,, i had a uncomfortable pain between my shoulder blades. i always have some sort of shoulder pain so i did not think any thing of it. i went to my local accident and emergency department and they told me i was getting a cold,, i asked them are they sure because i never get colds and the sickness only came on after i stranded myself. they sent me away to get a blood test but being male i left it two days,,
i was told i had a silent heart attack

i have not had any thing done. i need a bypass but they won’t do it because i am not that bad yet. i am 47 years old and my doctor said because i feel fine and active it will be put off till i get older and less mobile

most people believe you have to have chest pain to have a heart attack but this is wrong.. you can have arm pain or any pain. if you know something is not right get it checked out.. pain is a warning..
