My mother started to feel pain in the left groin ...

Hi Dr. Today my mother started to feel from one hour to another left groin pain and then began to feel pain in her belly and left arm ... I am very worried because she suffers from hypertension, but she does not want to go to a doctor because maybe for fear of being serious, please, do you have any suspicions? I do not understand much of medicine but I think it can be a heart attack, or it has nothing to do? Please, I love my mother and hate to see her crying, however, I can not stand alone, even without her wanting to take her to the hospital ... Thank you in advance ... Laila
Expert answer:

Regardless of whether I say that you may or may not be a heart attack, you will have to go to the doctor, yes. And my answer is yes, it can be a heart attack although it is not the typical symptoms, but without being examined by a doctor and doing tests it is very difficult to be sure of anything.
