Cardiologist shares 5 symptoms you should never ignore and when to call 999
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death globally, and take about 17.9 million lives each year. Here are the symptoms you should never ignore Heart and circulatory diseases claim roughly 17.9 million lives worldwide each year, making them the globe's biggest killer. Shockingly, more than half of Britons are expected to develop a heart or circulation problem during their lifetime. This makes recognising the warning signs absolutely crucial - and knowing exactly when to seek expert help. According to Dr Allison R. Zielinski, a cardiologist at Northwestern Medicine, chest pain should be your first red flag for booking a doctor's appointment. Chest discomfort represents one of the "hallmark signs of a heart problem", with pressure that intensifies during physical activity potentially signalling that your heart isn't receiving adequate blood flow, reports Surrey Live. Dr Zielinski also recommends consulting a specialist if you suffer from breathlessness, heart palpitations or dizzy spells, as they can establish whether an underlying cardiac condition is to blame. Certain warning signs demand immediate emergency attention, particularly pain that radiates to your arm, neck, jaw, back, or stomach. British Heart Foundation specialists warn this could signal a heart attack is occurring and 999 should be dialled without delay. Suddenly experiencing nausea, sweating or feeling faint might seem like food poisoning or anxiety - but these could also indicate cardiac arrest. The BHF states: "If you experience a new and sudden feeling of sickness, sweatiness or light-headedness it is important you call 999 straight away." You should also watch out for any puffiness in your feet, ankles, or lower legs, as this can signal heart failure. This happens when your heart cannot circulate blood effectively throughout the body, causing fluid to build up. Another instance when you must dial 999 immediately is if you notice any signs of a stroke. The Stroke Association advises remembering the FAST acronym (Face, Arms, Speech, Time) as "every minute is vital" when seeking urgent medical assistance. Face weakness forms the initial element of the acronym and requires checking whether the individual can smile or if their mouth or eyes have drooped. Next is arm weakness - can they lift both arms and maintain them raised? Their speech might also be impacted and may sound garbled. Should someone you know display any single one of these warning signs, you must ring 999 straight away. The Stroke Association states: "Acting FAST will give the person having a stroke the best chance of survival and recovery. Even if it doesn't seem like much, any one of these signs of stroke is an emergency, so always call 999 immediately." An intense headache or vision difficulties - including fuzzy eyesight or losing sight in one or both eyes - may also indicate a stroke.

Poland manager Probierz quits after Lewandowski refuses to play under him
Michal Probierz has resigned as Poland's manager, days after Robert Lewandowski said he would no longer play for the national team under him. Lewandowski, Poland's record goalscorer, said his trust had been betrayed and that he was very hurt by the way Probierz told him he was being replaced as the captain. The 36-year-old Barcelona striker said on Monday he received a short call from Probierz as he was putting his children to bed and that a statement about him losing the captaincy appeared soon after on the Polish Football Association website. Probierz decided to replace Lewandowski as captain with the Inter midfielder Piotr Zielinski. Poland went on to suffer an embarrassing 2-1 defeat in Finland on Tuesday, to put their World Cup qualification hopes into jeopardy. 'I have come to the conclusion that in the current situation the best decision for the good of the national team will be my resignation from the position of coach,' Probierz said. 'Performing this function was the fulfilment of my professional dreams and the greatest honour in my life.' Lewandowski, who has a record 158 caps and 85 goals, is arguably the most outstanding player in Polish football history. He pulled out of last Friday's friendly win over Moldova, citing tiredness from a La Liga title-winning season. Probierz, who took over in September 2023 after the disappointing tenure of Fernando Santos, qualified for the 2024 European Championship but has since struggled. The Polish FA's president, Cezary Kulesza, had summoned Probierz on Wednesday to discuss the matter.

Barcelona's Robert Lewandowski says he will not play for Poland until head coach departs
Robert Lewandowski has said he will not play for Poland again until Michal Probierz is no longer head coach, due to his 'loss of trust' in his management. Barcelona striker Lewandowski is both the nation's highest goal scorer (85 international goals) and their record appearance holder (158 matches). Advertisement The 36-year-old was not called up for a set of June 2025 matches against Moldova and Finland, citing 'physical and mental tiredness' after the conclusion of the club season. Probierz subsequently made Inter midfielder Piotr Zielinski the national captain to replace Lewandowski, with the striker now responding by saying he will not play for the national side again until the head coach departs. Biorąc pod uwagę okoliczności i utratę zaufania do selekcjonera Reprezentacji Polski postanowiłem do czasu kiedy jest trenerem zrezygnować z gry w Reprezentacji Polski. Mam nadzieję, że będzie dane mi jeszcze zagrać dla najlepszych kibiców na świecie. 🇵🇱 — Robert Lewandowski (@lewy_official) June 8, 2025 'Taking into account the circumstances and a loss of trust in the coach, I have decided to resign from playing for the Poland national team for as long as he remains in charge,' Lewandowski wrote on his social media platform. 'I hope that I will be able to play for the best fans in the world again.' Lewandowski missed key matches for Barcelona, with whom he scored 42 goals in 52 games in 2024-25, in the closing weeks of the campaign including the Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid and the Champions League semi-final against Inter, but did return for his side's final three games of the season. Probierz has been in charge of Poland since 2023, when he replaced predecessor Fernando Santos, having coached the nation's under-21 side. The 52-year-old guided Poland to Euro 2024, but the side did not win a match at the tournament and exited at the group stage. Poland defeated Moldova 2-0 in Friday's friendly match.
