I'm glad you pointed out that women do not always have classic symptoms. My neighbor was complaining of aches and pains in her neck, back, legs. She is in her 70's and walking quite a bit and we all just thought she had general old age aches and pains- arthritis or what have you. She and her husband were on a trip to Boston and along the way in a motel she started hurting bad enough she couldn't sleep. Her husband did not like the way she was looking or acting and called an ambulance. Her symptoms were pretty vague but she was having a heart attack and got stints put in. She still did not relate this to her aches and pains but she told me later it dawned on her that after the stint was put in her aches went away. The achiness was the only symptom she had before the heart attack. She said her chest was not tight or hurting at all. Her Dr told her it is sometimes hard to diagnose heart problems in women from symptoms.
Same thing with a friend of mine. Her only symptom was heartburn.
