What should I do if I am having a heart attack?

If you Experience Heart Attack Symtoms

If you think you are having a heart attack, call your doctor and make it clear that this is an emergency, take a 325 mg. aspirin, and go to the emergency room.

Studies show the aspirin taken in the early stages of a heart attack improve the survival rates in both men and women.

DON'T DELAY MEDICAL INTERVENTION for ANY REASON (like finding the aspirin), and don't be embarrassed of being wrong, women tend to delay post-heart-attack hospital visits four hours longer than men.
