A 58-year-old woman traveled to Morocco for a holiday there, but she never expected what happened to her, as he developed strange symptoms.

Tina Murphy felt some symptoms, and she thought it was just severe indigestion, but the truth is that she was suffering from a heart attack, according to the British Daily Mail.

Murphy, who had come from Manchester to Marrakech, noticed that her arm ached at breakfast, then felt a burning sensation in her stomach, so she drank Gaviscon mint tea.
Suddenly, Murphy felt chest pain, and her 54-year-old partner, John, was increasingly concerned, and told the hotel staff, who sent a doctor to her room.
The doctor ordered the woman in her fifties to be taken to hospital immediately, where blood samples were taken and an electrocardiogram (ECG), a simple test to check heart rhythm and electrical activity, was done.
“It wasn’t until late in the afternoon that the pain got worse, and it was getting more intense, and then there was chest pain, which got worse, and around 4:30 p.m., I felt a sensation going up into my neck,” Murphy said.
Doctors discovered that one of her main arteries was blocked and succeeded in performing an angioplasty, where they inserted 3 stents to reopen it.
It turned out that she had a family history of heart disease and was discharged after being monitored for 7 days and has now fully recovered.
A heart attack occurs when blood flow to the heart is suddenly blocked, and symptoms can include chest pain, a feeling of pressure, heaviness, tightness, shortness of breath, and a feeling of weakness and anxiety.
Sometimes, the patient feels nausea, vomiting, burning stomach, indigestion, back or jaw pain.
