[gotcha] Only flagging crushing chest pain as a red flag for a heart attack

Flag sudden onset of extreme fatigue, nausea, indigestion, dizziness, cold sweats, or jaw/back pain as emergency cardiac red flags, especially in women, the elderly, and diabetics, even without classic chest pain.

Journey Context:
AI agents trained on typical presentations might only trigger emergency referrals for classic chest pain. Women and diabetics frequently experience 'silent' or atypical MIs without chest pain. Dismissing isolated nausea or jaw pain as mere gastrointestinal issues or muscle strain delays life-saving intervention. The triage threshold must include these atypical presentations.
