Recognizing the Symptoms of Cardiovascular Disease

The vascular system circulates all the blood in your body and includes the tiniest capillaries to the major blood vessels — veins and arteries — entering and leaving your heart. Cardiovascular symptoms can affect how well your heart works and pumps blood throughout your body.

If you experience any of the following symptoms associated with heart problems, call 911 immediately: 

  • Chest pain
  • Shortness of breath
  • Weakness
  • Dizziness
  • Fainting
  • Edema (swelling)
  • Palpitations or a feeling of fluttering in the chest

To determine your risk of developing a cardiovascular condition, take our online HeartAware Assessment.
