  He visited a local hospital's emergency department complaining of chest pain and dyspnea that had started 3 days earlier. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  This usually causes chest pain and leads to damage to some of the muscle of the heart. It may cause cardiac arrest, particularly in the early stages, but this is not inevitable. [resus.org.uk]

• Seizure

  Reported complications included hemorrhage (31.3%), limb complications (11.1%), circuit complications (8.8%), infection (7.4%), and seizures (5.5%). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Seizures may sometimes occur, and may be continuous (status epilepticus). Most people who make a full recovery were only briefly unconscious. [mountsinai.org]
