About a week and a half ago my husband ,who is 62 with high blood pressure, high cholestral, seizure disorder and borderline diabetic, overweight 20 lbs, had incident in which he felt pressure in the middle of his chest and could not take a deep breath. I suggested we go right to the Dr. but he refused. After about and hour he felt better and went about his day. In the late afternoon of this same day it happened again he rested and felt better afterwards. I feel he had some kind of heart attack but he says ,"no, if I had an attack I would know or I'd be dead".
The next day he was talking and he couldn't get this word out all of a sudden like he was slurring and then as fast as it happened it stopped and he was able to speak fine. How do I know if these are serious symptoms or not? Debbie
