I'm really worried because I've heard that heart attack symptoms in women can be different from what men experience. Can you explain what signs I should be looking out for? And how can I tell if chest pain is from a heart attack or just something else? Its been on my mind lately, and I'd love some clarity.

Is a blood pressure reading of 13565 with a heart rate of 76 normal for someone who has stents in both left and right arteries since April 2021 and also has diabetes along with other health issues? I'm a little concerned about whether these numbers are okay given the circumstances.

The blood pressure reading of 13565 is within the normal range. For individuals with a history of heart issues, such as having stents placed in the arteries, it is important to closely monitor blood pressure. In this case, the blood pressure reading is considered normal. However, it is always advisable to continue monitoring blood pressure regularly and follow up with her healthcare provider for further guidance.
