“Well it started yesterday, but it was the holiday so I waited…”

When it comes to chest pain or stroke symptoms, NEVER wait to come in. In the case of #heartattack and #stroke , time is heart muscle or brain tissue. If you have a blocked vessel, every minute matters. There are treatments that are only available in the first few hours, and then the risk becomes too high. Don’t worry, we’re working 24/7 in the ER no matter the holiday. Don’t end up permanently injured or dead because you waited.
