Experts have revealed a common heart attack symptom that often affects women, and most people tend to just brush it off.
Most people experience symptoms such as a painful chest when they're having a heart attack, but it turns out that feelings of heartburn, anxiety and 'funny turns' are also highly common.
And because they seem fairly harmless, women don't seek the medical attention they need - leading to around 77 British women dying of a heart attack every day.
The Mirror reports that experts have warned of the lesser-known heart attack symptom of indigestion, saying it could signal the condition.
A study, published in the journal Circulation, found that indigestion was a common symptom experienced by women in the month leading up to their cardiac event.
Around 39 percent of the cohort reported the uncomfortable sensation before their heart attack, but indigestion was not common during the heart attack itself.
Indigestion can be pain or discomfort in your upper abdomen (dyspepsia) or burning pain behind the breastbone (heartburn), says the NHS.
The aim of the study was to accurately describe the women’s coronary heart disease symptoms, to develop a deeper understanding of the warning signs.
The researchers said: "The current description of 'typical' cardiac symptoms is based primarily on the experience of white, middle-aged men.”
But this "contributes to misunderstandings in clinicians and lay individuals, leads to inaccurate diagnosis, and causes women to delay seeking treatment".
They added that in earlier research, they found that between 85 to 90 percent of women reported several different symptoms in the period leading up to a heart attack.
