Chest pain-deadly???
krithganram 77 Posts Hi I want to share this sad news .One of my neighbors who has been an hypertensive and on anti hypertensive medication suddenly developed chest pain. he was immediately rushed to hospital but the ECG showed normal phenomenon and he was discharged by saying that the chest pain was due to gastric upset. His chest pain subsided and he returned home. The following morning he got up and suddenly became breathless and collapsed all in a matter of few minutes and he passed away. What could be the possible reason. He was diagnosed later as having a silent heart attack. Is this possible?
