Women's Heart Health: Reyna Robles's Story

Reyna Robles was certain something was wrong with her heart. A cramp-like pain in her chest kept recurring, but her EKG came back normal. It wasn't until she was seen at Stanford's Women's Heart Health Clinic, that the problem was identified correctly.

If you have not had this resolved, come and see my husband at Mayo clinic Minnesota.

Dear Reyna, I too am an active mother of four who was diagnosed with a Myocardial Bridge. Were it not for my husband, who is a cardiologist, I would have been sent home with negative results. Your video gets out a very important message to women with heart disease. You must be persistant to be heard. I am now 6 years post surgery and am very active and pain free. There are a lot of women out there who I feel are undiagnosed. Thank you for making this video

I was diagnosed wtih MB in Standford by Dr. Dennis Lee. Nowaday, I am having a constant presssure especially right beneath the left collar bone and some time near the sternum area. I also have develop a light headache on the back of my left brain. Sometime, tingling sensation near the cheek area. Just wonder if you have seen some of these symptoms.

Thanks
