When you are alone and have a heart attack, what are you going to do?

Let's say it's 5:25 pm and you're driving home after an unusually hard day's work. All of a sudden, you have chest pains. They are starting to radiate to the arm and jaw. It feels like you're being stabbed in the chest and heart. You're only a few miles away from the nearest hospital, but you don't know if you can make it.

Maybe you've taken CPR training, but the person running the course hasn't told you how to help yourself. A person who is feeling weak and whose heart is beating hard has only about ten seconds before losing consciousness. Fortunately, there are some things you can do to help yourself.

Cough repeatedly and very strongly. Take deep breaths before every cough. Coughing should be repeated every second until you arrive at the hospital or until your heart starts to beat normally. Deep breathing gives oxygen to your lungs and coughing movements boost the heart and blood circulation. Heart pressure also helps to restore a normal heartbeat. This is how heart attack victims can make it to the hospital to get treated.

You should know that women have additional and different symptoms. They rarely experience crushing chest pain or pain in the arms. They often have indigestion and tightness across the back at the bra line, plus sudden fatigue.

Passing this information along could save a life.

As I said above, this was posted by a friend - not a doctor. I have heard about the coughing and deep breathing several times, though. Of course, eating right and getting enough sleep and exercise can help to prevent a heart attack.
