Pathway to Healing Natural remedies for optimal health http://link.crosswalk.com/UM/T.asp?A1.43.28903.3.1698058 Are You Experiencing Heartburn or a Heart Attack? By Dr. Cherry The approaching holiday season is the time a year when food becomes the center of focus, often leading to an overindulgence that can cause indigestion and heartburn. But because heartburn and a heart attack can both cause chest pain, it is easy to confuse these two conditions. (Actually, heartburn has nothing to do with the heart, but is named so because the pain you feel is in close proximity to the heart.) Also, people who are at risk for heart attacks (those over age 40, for example) are often the same ones who are most likely to experience heartburn. If you experience chest pain, to be safe, seek medical attention immediately. Waiting to see if chest pain is due to heartburn could prove fatal, as much of the damage of a heart attack occurs in the first hour. Of the millions of people each year that show up in emergency rooms with concerns that their chest pain is due to a heart attack, only about 10 percent are actually suffering from heartburn. * * * * * * * * * * * * ADVERTISEMENT * * * * * * * * * * * * Want to overcome annoying health problems?

Heart Attack � A feeling of pain, squeezing, fullness or pressure in the center of the chest that lasts longer than a few minutes. � Pain radiating into the shoulder, arm or jaw, particularly on the left side of the body. � Chest pain accompanied by shortness of breath, a cold sweat, nausea, fainting, dizziness, paleness or lightheadedness. � Palpitations or an increase in heart rate. � Fatigue, weakness or anxiety of unknown cause. ----- For more information on Dr. Cherry's ministry, visit his Web site: http://link.crosswalk.com/UM/T.asp?A1.43.28903.1.1698058 For Copyright Terms visit http://link.crosswalk.com/UM/T.asp?A1.43.28903.2.1698058 ____________________SUBSCRIPTION INFO_______________________ * This newsletter is never sent unsolicited.
