- Fatigue and Weakness: Unusual tiredness or weakness, especially during activities that were previously easy, can be a sign of heart problems.
- Palpitations or Irregular Heartbeat: Feeling your heart racing, fluttering, or skipping beats may suggest abnormal heart rhythms.
- Swelling in Legs or Abdomen: Fluid buildup causing swelling can occur when the heart struggles to pump blood properly.
