How Can Heart Health Be Improved?
I had a heart attack around 3-4 months ago in my sleep. Didn t know it. Thought bronchitis. 3-4 weeks later I checked into emergency room cause I couldn t breathe. That was on Sept 24. Got 4 stents and released from hospital on Oct. 3rd 2017. Since then have been doing cardio rehab and following docs orders/prescriptions. Results of echo-cardiogram indicate geart function is now at 45% vice 15% when I checked out on Oct. 3rd. I feel that is somewhat of a miracle..........Is it possible for me to improve heart function even more?
