Like the others said, myocardial infarction. Some people have also said that they have angina..so they said that they've had a heart attack. This is not necessarily true. Angina is chest pains usually caused by the coronary arteries on the heart going into a "spasm" and actually constricting. The doctors usually give you nitroglycerin pills, to put under your tongue for this. I hope I've helped you.best of luck..
Don't know,
but a reminder to people reading this.. if you have one, take asprin, and call emergency people right away.
To prevent one:
Eat as close to vegetarianism as possible. No franks, sausage, cut out eggs if you have to.
Cut out tobacco, alcohol and drugs.
Eat lots of vegetables and some fruits.
Take a quality multi-vitamin from your local 'health' store or vitaminshoppe.com
Get plenty of excersize.
And for the avid seekers, take co-q10 (heart strengthener) and grape seed extract (vascular health)
Engage in sprituality.
And look at these sites

depends on what you mean.
A heart attack can be any of 3 things in the medical field. They're lumped under acute coronary syndrome. You can have unstable angina, a non-ST elevation MI, or ST elevation MI (myocardial infarction). The difference between the last 2 are EKG findings. If you've been having chest pains for a long time and its tolerable, you might have stable angina which is ok provided it doesn't worsen. see your doctor please
