A lot of women have reported hot and burning sensations as well as tenderness in the back, arms, shoulders and jaws. Chest discomfort is hardly seen in a woman with an angina attack. A good physician will think of it as an angina than any type of transient and activity-related discomfort located superior the waist level and aren’t easily thrown into the atypical descriptions. Until now, many doctors still persists that CAD or coronary artery disease is uncommon in a woman, they often mistaken the symptoms as gastrointestinal disturbances.
