Yes. Some people are born with their heart on the Right side of their body this is called Dextrocardia Situs Inversus. So if you see someone putting their hand over the Right side of their chest during the pledge of allegiance, don't be offended. You don't know where their heart is.

Left arm could very easily be a heart attack, that was what I felt along with hot flash and a body tremor. Right arm could be a pinched nerve or strain. If it is your left arm, get to a hospital ASAP. Don't think you can't have a heart attack that you are too young or too healthy or that it just can't happen to you. GO!
