Statistically, the guarantee there will be a “last time” means that every time it isn’t the “last time” your chance of the next one being the “last time” increase… So, you know, don’t freak out or anything because that increases the chances of the next time happening sooner.
There’s no actual guarantee there will be a morbid last time with random chest pains. It could be more like the last time you burned a CD; uneventful and not really noteworthy.
Technically, heart problems only kill like…
Oof looking up those stats was depressing…
Heart disease deaths as of 2022 account for only 24% of all deaths though! So your chances of death by heart problem aren’t actually super high, especially if you don’t have existing heart problems! Yay! Its probably just a panic attack! Or gas!
The share of heart attacks as a subset of all cardiovascular disease deaths is also down, but deaths from things like hypertension are way way up, relatively, so take your meds if you have them, get your exercise, eat the veggies, do the health things.
Every time it has happened hasn’t been the last time, so statistically it’s guaranteed to always be nothing, right?

The number of times it is going happen is constantly going down.
