And this is why we need more upending of the medical dogma surrounding heart disease.
Jane's Story Part II. My husband Randy and I were both so pleased and relieved when we found out that my heart disease had stopped and I was no longer at high risk. Randy asked his doctor if he should get a heart scan too. His doctor said, " Randy, you are the picture of health. You are fit, slender, you exercise daily, eat well, and your cholesterol numbers have always been perfect. Don't waste your time with a heart scan." Then, just a few months later, Randy came home from his usual 6 mile walk, sat down in his chair and died of a sudden heart attack. He had no symptoms. We later learned that his arteries were filled with plaque even though his cholesterol and blood pressure had always been normal. He had no risk factors. How could this have happen to him?
If Tom had just had the heart scan, we would have found his heart issue early enough to do change his outcome. I am still absorbing the the shock and terrible loss, I think I always will. Since his death I have made it my mission to tell people about heart scans. It's pretty simple. You do not know if you have heart disease until you get a heart scan, regardless of what "They" tell you. Take the first step. Visit www.cruxpoint.com
