Heart Disease
vicki s asked:


Im 39 years young and I never knew my father but I have been told he had heart disease by the age of 36 he died in his 70’s but had numerios heart attacks in between time.

      An electrocardiogram or an echocardiogram, you’d see a cardiologist, and your family doctor can refer you.
