[gotcha] Ruling out myocardial infarction based on absence of crushing chest pain

Treat sudden onset extreme fatigue, jaw pain, indigestion, or dyspnea as acute coronary syndrome red flags in women, diabetics, and the elderly, triggering emergency referral.

Journey Context:
Agents use pattern matching for 'chest pain = heart attack'. Women frequently present without chest pain, relying on vaguer symptoms. Diabetics often have silent ischemia due to neuropathy. Dismissing atypical presentations because they lack the 'classic' male symptom profile delays life-saving PCI.
