  • Inspired by the true stories of real women impacted by heart disease, the American Heart Association's Go Red For Women movement and Emmy-nominated actress Elizabeth Banks created the short film, "Just a Little Heart Attack," to educate women about the realities of heart disease and encourage them to put their health first. The short film, directed by and starring Ms. Banks, chronicles one woman's experience ignoring her symptoms and putting herself last. Go Red For Women hopes the film, "Just a Little Heart Attack," will engage and inspire women to put their health first and take care of their heart.

    I had just seen this video for the first and only time last week. I'm not sure where it popped up, but because it was Elizabeth Banks, I stopped to watch. A few days later I found myself experiencing the same symptoms. I had SCAD, Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection. I had no symptoms or markers for heart disease. It just happened out of the blue. It mostly happens to younger women. I probably wouldn't have believed I was having a heart attack if I hadn't just seen the video. I had 5 stents put in to repair the tear, and my prognosis is good! This video saved my life!

      You don't need to have had a heart attack to have stents put in. A friend just had some put in and had not had a heart attack; his condition was minor but could become major.

    The "Sorry to bother you," comment is very common ). One reason women (and men) are reluctant to go to the ER when they have chest discomfort is that they're afraid doctors will be irritated for wasting their time if it's nothing. But always go. The ER docs will not be annoyed if you're not having a real heart issue.

    Aside from one GAPING problem, this is a great educational video, delivered in an easy-to-watch, entertaining way. The problem is that it shows a son (who is old enough to recognize the symptoms of a heart attack and pull the info up on a phone), who just walks out the door when he sees his mom having a possible heart attack! THIS LOOKS REALLY BAD!! It should have showed a son, who, upon recognizing the symptoms of a heart attack, promptly dials 911 to get immediate help, since "time is muscle", instead of tossing the phone to his mom and walking out the door.

    • @slaveteri

      i felt the same way. He is absolutely old enough to have taken the initiative to see that she gets some medical assistance, because we aren't thinking straight (or of ourselves) in moments like these. It's only been 2 weeks since i was in the ER with chest pain (not a heart attack, but possibly a cardiac event. Still being watched outpatient) and i had been feeling it starting at least 30mins before my work shift ended. i WORKED THE REST OF THE SHIFT before heading to the ER. my co-workers kept asking me if i was all right. i kept telling them it was just a little chest pain. And they didn't stop me and send me to the ER. (i work in a hospital IN A CARDIOLOGY UNIT.) They absolutely should have sent me to the ER. Anyway, my sons know what to look for and to call 911 if this happens to me again. We need to educate not only ourselves, but our loved ones as well, as to what signs to look for and how to call 911/000/999, etc.

I absolutely understand the satisfaction a cig can provide, but it's nothing compared with surviving a heart attack and the open heart surgery that followed. Also, the next time you go to your doctor, ask them to check for a heart murmur. It's always a good idea to keep tabs on how the old engine is holding up.

I see my cardiologist twice a year, and he said no matter how much do you prophylactically, no one can actually predict if and when you will have a heart attack...it’s so random...He’s had healthy patients have them, and people who are obese not.

      Regarding this video, it is a fact that people remember things better if there is humor. This video is in no way intended to ridicule those who have had or are having problems but to call attention to it. Because of the absurdity (humor if you want to call it that), people pay more attention to it - sad fact of life but truth. Most of us, by the time there were two or three things, would realize there is an issue - this shows the many symptoms of which most of us would ignore if it were only one or ever two. Even at the end when she looks around at the mess and asks 9-1-1 to make it ten minutes drives home a point - your life is more important than broken plates someone else will see on your floor.

    Me dieron de alta de Mach 2018 después de estar en el hospital durante nueve meses completos en total. Mi derrame cerebral afectó mi lado izquierdo y mi visión y cognición también se vieron afectadas. No hubiera sabido por dónde empezar a escribir esto, y ha tomado un tiempo, pero estoy seguro de que es una buena práctica y me ayudará. (¡Pero me disculpo por cualquier error! ... ortografía y gramática ... etc.) Dicen que la paciencia es una virtud, y eso puede ser más cierto después de un derrame cerebral. Sin embargo, veo mejoras todos los días. Mantente fuerte y habla sobre cómo te sientes. Tenía numerosas áreas de mi cerebro que se vieron afectadas, me emociono mucho y a veces lloro. No estaba deprimido, solo un poco "encerado" con mi cerebro.
    Mi viaje comenzó en noviembre de 2016. Me había sentido muy cansada durante bastante tiempo, y mi esposo vino del trabajo una noche y me encontró con mucho sueño y poco atento. Llamó a una ambulancia. Poco después tuve una convulsión y luego otras cuatro más en camino. Hicieron un análisis de sangre y encontraron que tenía varias anemia, con un recuento sanguíneo de 23, por lo que necesitaba 4 unidades de sangre, lo cual tenía que hacerse muy rápido, de lo contrario, no habría sobrevivido. Esto funcionó de maravilla para mí y estuve en el hospital durante una semana más, luego me dieron de alta con planes de hacer más investigaciones como paciente ambulatorio. Después de estar en casa durante una semana, tuve otra convulsión y me llevaron de regreso al hospital. Tomé algunos más, lo que llevó a mi primer golpe el 12 de diciembre. Pasé toda la Navidad en el hospital y me estaba recuperando bien hasta el 31 de diciembre. En la víspera de Año Nuevo, tuve mi segundo derrame cerebral, que afectó otra área de mi cerebro. Esto me dio la espalda, pero continué mi recuperación. Estaba empezando a desanimarme, pero luego mi primer nieto me habló del remedio herbal del Dr. Peju que se decía que había curado el accidente cerebrovascular. Estaba en el hospital, así que tenía algo en lo que concentrarme. Después de una semana me mudé a casa. Tuvimos que contactar al herbolario para obtener sus hierbas. Me fue muy bien durante un par de meses, ya que acababa de comenzar a dar un par de pasos. Mientras estaba en casa, me visitó un voluntario de Different Strokes, ya que se enteraron de que me estaba recuperando meses después de tomar las hierbas. también fue un sobreviviente de un accidente cerebrovascular. ¡Me inspiran! Entonces, cuando estuve bien curado, me uní a la 'familia' de Different Strokes (#dsfamily). ¡El apoyo de los compañeros es fantástico y ahora incluso estoy involucrado en la gestión del grupo Leeds Central! Estoy completamente curado. ¡Sobreviví a los golpes y estoy aquí para contar la historia!

    If you think this is funny think again. If you've lost someone to a heart attack, making it into a joke, like your housekeeping is more important, is ludicrous, insensitive, revolting, offensive, and making light of one of the world's top killers. Some things are not funny. Wise up!

      +cmherbs She's not making fun of people who have died from heart disease and trying to belittle it. I have serious heart failure and almost died of from a heart attack last month. I wouldn't have gone to the hospital or known that I was having a heart attack if I didn't watch this video. It's meant to create awareness. She's not saying that housekeeping is more important. She's showing how so many women will continue about their day, doing ordinary things without realizing they are having a heart attack. She was demonstrating the symptoms many women experience and trying to show that it was something that should be taken seriously because she could have died if her son hadn't stopped her from doing trivial things (that seemed important to her at the time) and being checked out. I'm sorry that this offended you, but that definitely was not her intention. I have loved ones who have died from heart disease as well and it wasn't a "joke." This was meant to show how so many women don't take their symptoms seriously enough. That's all she was trying to convey. And because of this video, many women have learned to take these symptoms seriously and get checked out. This video has saved lives so trying and thinking of it that way may be more helpful. I think you may have misinterpreted what she was trying to convey through humor in this video, but I understand why you may be so offended by it.

      +cmherbs This is truly how MANY women are. I am a nurse at a busy heart center/coronary care unit and we have had women come in that have put off chest pain for MONTHS that finally come in when it is too late. Some have made it some have not. This video is SPOT on and in your face what happens. It is truly serving as a wake up call to those that DO NOT come in and worry about the housework and everything else that is going on that need to stop and say. "Ok, I have to listen to my body!" I have lost my father to a heart attack and my mother to cancer. This is how you reach people that don't want to listen. There are ways of reaching people through different medias and forms and sometimes you need to go this avenue. I am truly sorry for your loss, but if someone watches this and says "I need to stop what I am doing I am being completely insane cleaning my house and go to the hospital" Isn't it worth it? As a nurse it is to me.

      Extremely well said! One symptom that is oftentimes overlooked is blacking out. I did this repeatedly and blamed it on a disease I have. My doctor disagreed and had me put though every kind of heart exam you can imagine. The tests showed that I have an abnormally healthy heart for a woman my age! But the black outs continued. He made arrangements for one last heart test: a tilt table test monitored by a cardiac electrophysiologist. (I think of her as a sort of neurologist of the heart.) I was on her monitor for less that 30 seconds when she knew exactly what had been causing the black outs. My heart doesn't always begin its beat from the correct spot in the heart. It will start at the correct point for 3 or 4 beats then switch to beating from the middle of my heart for 3 or 4 beats. That transfer of location causes my blood pressure to plummet and voila! I wake up on the floor with another big knot on my head. It is hard to determine the blood pressure drop because it cannot be heard with a stethoscope. I now take a simple drug twice a day and am feeling better. Now if there was a way to correct the other disease but there isn't. ) :
      Not long ago Rosie O'Donnell had a heart attack. She made up a sort of sing song of the symptoms women have when having a heart attack. Please look it up. It could save your life or someone who is having the symptoms when you are with them. Blessings.

    Hard Work causes heart attacks.This is why we all need WELFARE! Your Job will kill you,,But being on Welfare doesn't cause you get stress cause you're not being told what to do by your supervisor or boss. You're your own boss when you're on welfare! Let the Government take care of you. Thats why we need Democrats! to take care of us hollywood is looking after us.. Elizabeth Banks is my favorite actress and she's a Democrat even she thinks its ok for some of us to collect Welfare,Food Stamps and free public housing.

    She risked her life to clean the house for her husband and kids like a proper woman. I hope one day there are more women like her to take the initiative!
