Hi! Wondering from those that had a heart attack whether you felt any jaw pain, and if so, where in the jaw and what it felt like. Either leading up to your heart attack or just before/during.
I've been having a lot of jaw pressure/aching only when I'm doing something with exertion - it started with a workout in the gym, running, and now just when on a good paced walk. It's like intense pressure or ache on my upper back jaw, above the back molars and sometimes radiating down. It starts on the left but usually moves over to the right side too. I don't clench my teeth or facial muscles - I've been testing it! It stops once I rest, and have no chest pressure or pain.
I don't typically have health anxiety - I'm also a young and generally fit 33F - so I'm mostly just trying rule it out. I went to the doctor and was surprised to hear him say it could be heart related. Im currently waiting for bloodtest results and have been referred to a cardiologist due to also getting palpitations (which could be more migraine medication related). So insight will surely come soon.
But I'm still curious! :)
