3. Indigestion or heartburn
Heartburn and bloating are often misleading, and patients with these symptoms may be having a heart attack instead. Some people experience indigestion and bloating symptoms with frequent burping and abdominal distension just before having a heart attack.
During the cardiovascular event, the chest pain may feel similar to acid reflux or heartburn. So, if you’re having a combination of heartburn with other symptoms, and if you feel it’s a different type of heartburn or something is wrong with you, don’t hesitate to look for urgent medical attention.
