Sounds like a stereotype.

My experience was much closer to this description of a supposedly "female" 
heart attack.

I'd guess that there are many different "heart attacks" for many different 
individual conditions and causes.
Further - that, physiologically, if the general individual conditions and 
causes are similar
the experience will be similar, whether a man or a woman.

Perhaps our medical professionals will share opinions here.
