Narrative:

Passenger reported his seat mate was ill. I checked on passenger and he said his pulse was rapid! He was gray and clammy in appearance! I asked if he had any medical. History. He replied he'd had a heart attack. I called flight attendant #1. She came back immediately. I asked passenger if he had any medicine with him -- he replied no. The #1 flight attendant talked with him and the captain for approximately 10 mins and it was decided to make a landing. We tried to make the passenger as comfortable as possible. The only odd thing I noticed was every time passenger told of his condition, the symptoms kept changing. Passenger was removed by emt and aircraft was resecured and we resumed our journey.
