How to survive a heart attack if alone:
1. Letโs say itโs 7.25pm and youโre going home (alone of course) after an unusually hard day on the job.
2. Youโre really tired, upset and frustrated.
3 Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw. You are only about five km from the hospital nearest your home.
4. Unfortunately you donโt know if youโll be able to make it that far.
5. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy who taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.
CALL 911, UNLOCK YOUR DOOR,. CHEW AN ASPIRIN. Then,
6. Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.
7. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again.
8. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.
9. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!!
10. A cardiologist says If everyone who gets this mail kindly sends it to 10 people, you can bet that weโll save at least one life.
11. Rather than sending jokes, please... contribute by forwarding this mail which can save a personโs life.
12. If this message comes around you... more than onceโฆ please donโt get irritated... You should instead, be happy that you have many friends who care about you & keeps reminding you how to deal with a Heart attack.
