Title: Generally symptoms of a heart attack in people with diabetes


1
How Does Diabetes Cause Heart Disease?
2
  • A new study suggests that people with diabetes
    are at a higher risk of developing heart disease,
    and those with a heart attack are at greater risk
    of death?
  • High blood pressure is a risk factor for a
    cardiac disease but guess what? Another reason
    for creating it is diabetes. Diabetes is also a
    systemic problem that can affect your dementia to
    your heart and kidney disease etc.
  • In this study doctors compared about 200,000
    people with a significant heart attack. They call
    them st-elevation heart attacks and compared it
    to 400,000 people who had a non-st elevation
    heart attack, and they realized that the ones who
    had diabetes had a much higher chance of dying
    from a disease from heart attacks.
  • So, the idea is now a significant risk factor for
    people who are on the way to have heart disease
    and die from this diabetes.
  • We learned from this that number one, you need to
    know your sugar level, and you need to control
    your diabetes. The best way to lose weight is
    because we're discussing type 2 diabetes, which
    is in countries like the US, it's diet effective.
    It's all in rich countries.

  • Belly fat is one of the primary reasons why we
    have diabetes. Guess what, by losing weight, by
    adding exercise, it's a repetition again you can
    control your diabetes, and medication, insulin is
    there but try to do it yourself, that's the best
    way to control your diabetes.
  • There are few leading cardiac diabetic
    PCD company in India. These companies produce
    good quality medicines for diabetes and
    heart-related problems.

What Are The Symptoms Of A Heart Attack In People
With Diabetes Generally? 
  • Whenever we think about heart attacks, we get the
    classic symptoms. The classic symptoms of a heart
    attack include, 
  • ? severe chest pain with a feeling of heaviness
    in the chest, which generally reduces to the left
    arm with a lot of sweating,
  • ? breathlessness, and 
  • ? the feeling of lightheadedness. 
  • These are classic heart attack symptoms, and pain
    in the chest is an integral component of heart
    attack symptoms. 
  • However, in diabetics, there is a decrease in
    pain perception, so because of that, generally,
    they may not experience this kind of classic
    symptom. The intensity of the pain may be much
    lesser in people with diabetes than people who do
    not have diabetes, and sometimes they may not
    perceive any pain at all, which can give rise to
    silent heart attacks.

  • In people with diabetes, sometimes, instead of
    these classic symptoms, there can be atypical
    symptoms like indigestion, lightheadedness, or
    mild discomfort in the throat. Many times, people
    who have diabetes perceive these very mild
    symptoms, and then they ignore these symptoms, so
    in people who have diabetes, heart attacks can
    have these kinds of atypical symptoms. 
  • So, if there is any diabetic who experiences
    symptoms that they have not experienced any time
    in the past, they should consult a doctor to get
    a check-up because of the atypical symptoms that
    can happen in heart attacks in people with
    diabetes. 
  • Cardiac diabetic PCD company produces products
    that prevent heart strokes, heart attacks, heart
    disease, etc.

What Is The Connection Between Diabetes And
Cardiovascular Disease?
  • Mainly there is a connection between women's
    diabetes and cardiovascular disease for example,
    if a patient that you see is a very petite female
    young and goes to the doctor with chest pain, you
    would not guess somebody who would be having
    heart disease because when, we think of heart
    disease we picture somebody who is obese,
    somebody either very old or somebody who has a
    lot of other illnesses and anything, they
    probably have heart disease. 
  • But when you see a young, thin petite looking
    woman in her late 30s and she comes with some
    chest pain to doctors, not only us even doctors
    don't think of heart disease the first thing,
    they think maybe she has got some emotional
    issues, or maybe she has some acid reflux, or
    maybe she heard her chest doing a workout in the
    gym. 
  • But when doctors take a history, she tells them
    that she has had diabetes for 20 years, which
    changes the doctor's perspective entirely, though
    externally, she is a healthy-looking petite young
    woman whose body has been exposed to diabetes. 
  • As we know, diabetes causes injury to the artery
    lining because these arteries have been injured
    over long periods. They're more likely to develop
    plaque in them and more likely to develop
    blockages in them.

  • Suppose the doctor takes further history and
    finds that she also has a little bit of a
    cholesterol problem and bad cholesterol is not
    very high. Still, her good cholesterol is very
    low, which is also fundamental to understanding a
    person with diabetes. 
  • Their total cholesterol may not be very high, but
    their breakdown of cholesterol may be very
    harmful to their cardiovascular health. That
    means that the excellent cholesterol may be
    below, and the bad cholesterol may be only
    slightly high. 
  • But that good low cholesterol has a very negative
    effect on our body in developing heart disease.
    So, with those factors present, she would be
    tested, and she would have found heart disease,
    which Doctors can successfully treat with a
    standing.
  • Cardiac diabetic PCD company always manufactures
    products after being certified by ISO standards
    and produces them in the market.

How Do Carbohydrates Affect Diabetes?
  • Carbohydrates are an essential source of
    nutrition in our diet. Carbs can be divided into
    sugars, starches, and fiber sugars are simple
    carbohydrates easily and quickly broken down in
    the body to produce glucose, the molecule that we
    use as our body's fuel. 
  • Starches are more complex carbohydrates that
    contain long strings of sugar molecules. Our
    bodies use enzymes to break down starches into
    usable glucose. As starches are more complex than
    sugars, it takes a bit longer to convert the
    nutrients into our body's fuel. Unlike sugars and
    starches, fiber can not be broken by the body's
    digestive system and does not provide any
    nutritional value.

9
Conclusion
  • Thus, diabetes is one of the significant risk
    factors which can cause heart disease. The
    arteries impair for an extended period due to
    diabetes. People with diabetes are more
    susceptible to heart disease than others.
