I feel your frustration. *grins* I had a very similar situation with an entirely different poster who made all of these claims that were just...ridiculous. Like when he likened a heart attack to a cramp. Or stated that strokes were not caused by high blood pressure.

Still, hopefully most people are intelligent enough to not take the word of anyone in the Health and Safety forums, unless they are talking about a specific situation, with direct personal experience. And even in that scenario, I would hope most, if not all, would recognize that we will not all experience the same situation in the same way.

Oddly enough, when my dad had a heart attack he said it felt like an extremely painful cramp in his chest... So maybe that was what the guy meant? Luckily my heart is rather healthy, so I wouldn't know how it feels (and I am not eager to find out), but I think for different people the same medical condition can feel different, for some odd reason a broken bone doesn't hurt me as much as it should (according to docs), I'm not super brave or anything, it just doesn't feel quite as painful as say a nasty paper cut (which I think hurts like hell)...

Oh absolutely! And women are known to experience different symptoms than men during a heart attack.

Your comment reminds me of something I learned in health class in junior high. (I have no idea why some things stick out in my memory and other things don't, it seems so random.) Our teacher told us that woman have a slightly higher pain tolerance than men. She quickly added that this did not mean the boys in the class could experiment by pinching the girls or something of the like. Junior high boys are the worst! *LOL*
