On the day of the heart attack, Nikki again felt nausea and discomfort in the shoulder, but this time it spread to her chest and arm. Despite the malaise, he tried to deal with the day normally. He reported symptoms to his doctor during an already scheduled visit, receiving advice from going to the hospital only in case of worsening.

Nikki decided to share her experience on TikTok to raise awareness among people about the lesser-known symptoms of heart attack, especially among women.

Nikki’s story serves as a warning to listen to his body and consult a doctor, as timely surgery can make a difference to save his skin.
