I am 49 years old. I have been Living life with heart disease for over 11 years. During which I have suffered 4 heart attacks. Have 5 stents and had to have triple coronary bypass. I have unable to work and have been on permanent disability since January 2000. I have many bouts with angina and been hospitalized over 30 times in the last 10 years.
My mother died at the age of 51 from a heart attack. She had no idea she had heart disease, and that's probably because woman's symptoms could be different from the symptoms that men have.
