Heart disease is the leading cause of death for women worldwide.
Yet most people are still unaware that heart disease is not just a
man's problem. Carolyn Thomas, a heart attack survivor herself, is
on a mission to educate women about their heart health. Based on
her popular Heart Sisters blog, which has attracted more than 10
million views from readers in 190 countries, A Woman's Guide to
Living with Heart Disease combines personal experience and medical
knowledge to help women learn how to understand and manage a
catastrophic diagnosis. In A Woman's Guide to Living with Heart
Disease, Thomas explains * how to recognize the early signs of a
heart attack* why women often delay seeking treatment-and how to
overcome that impulse* the link between pregnancy complications and
future heart disease* why so many women with heart disease are
misdiagnosed-and how to help yourself get an accurate diagnosis*
the importance of cardiac rehabilitation in lowering mortality
risk* what to expect during your recovery from a heart attack* how
the surreal process of coping with heart disease may affect your
daily life* methods for treating heart disease-related depression
without drugs Equal parts memoir about a misdiagnosed heart attack,
guide to the predictable stages of heart disease-from grief to
resilience-and patient-friendly translation of important
science-based findings on women's unique heart issues, this book is
an essential read. Whether you're a freshly diagnosed patient, a
woman who's been living with heart disease for years, or a
practitioner who cares about women's health, A Woman's Guide to
Living with Heart Disease will help you feel less alone and
advocate for better health care.
