I got this information from a email friend and it is very important, so I will pass it on.
IF YOU ARE ALONE WHEN YOU SUFFER A HEART ATTACK, YOU HAVE ABOUT 10 SECONDS LEFT BEFORE LOSING CONSCIOUSNESS. YOU CAN HELP YOURSELF BY COUGHING REPEATEDLY AND VERY VIGOROUSLY. TAKE A DEEP BREATH BEFORE EACH COUGH, AND THE COUGH MUST BE DEEP AND PROLONGED, AS WHEN PRODUCING MUCUS FROM DEEP WITHIN THE CHEST.
A BREATH AND A COUGH MUST BE REPEATED ABOUT ONCE EVERY TWO SECONDS WITHOUT LETUP UNTIL HELP ARRIVES, OR UNTIL THE HEART IS FELT TO BEATING NORMAL AGAIN.
DEEP BREATHS GET OXYGEN INTO THE LUNGS AND COUGHING MOVEMENTS SQUEEZE THE HEART AND KEEP THE BLOOD CIRCULATING. THE SQUEEZING ON THE HEART HELPS IT REGAIN NORMAL RHYTHM UNTIL YOU CAN GET TO A HOSPITAL OR UNTIL MEDICAL HELP ARRIVES.
