Not major but I thought I was having a heart attack while shovelling snow alone in my driveway. Felt like burning and numbness in my arm and chest. Like acid reflux. I felt weak and crumpled to the floor.

The pain went away once my heart rate came down

After testing, it turned out I had a 100% blocked artery and needed stents. I was in my early 40s.
