[gotcha] Ruling out heart attack in women due to absence of crushing chest pain

Always flag atypical heart attack symptoms \(extreme fatigue, shortness of breath, nausea, jaw/back pain\) as red flags for emergency referral, especially in women and diabetics, even without severe chest pain.

Journey Context:
AI models trained on classic textbook presentations \(older male with crushing chest pain\) often downscale urgency for women or diabetics who frequently present with 'atypical' or 'silent' symptoms. Missing this leads to fatal delays. The absence of chest pain does not rule out MI in these cohorts, and agents must weight atypical symptoms heavily.
