Can Fatigue And Depression Cause Heart Attack?

Hi, my mom died of a massive heart attack some time ago. She had symptoms of fatigue and dizziness 2 months prior. She did go to he gp with this, and was told that she may have vertigo, and the fatigue was due to depression she was experiencing at the time....should her gp have tested her for heart problems?

depression and fatigue can be a risk factor of cardiac stroke but indivually it will not be a cause of this

so for a healthy life i will suggest you to walk for 30min a day and eat healthy food and live a stress free life
