Another week, another example of a mid-life woman having cardiac symptoms be dismissed.
What do we have to do to get the correct info to the front line medical staff; paramedics, A&E staff, GPs?
I'm open to offers of giving presentations, talks, just how to we get these to happen?
This really could be the difference between life and death.

30+ years ago this couple were some of my 1st Personal Training clients when I lived in the NW of England!
Although they've lived in Portugal for many years, we've kept in touch and we managed to meet up whilst Cameron & I were on holiday there in September.
Just lovely!
It's so lovely to still be in touch with some of my first ever clients 😊

🚨 New research in the European Heart Journal has exposed alarming risks for women’s heart health.
Women with only minor heart damage after a heart attack who were put on beta-blockers actually faced worse outcomes — more likely to suffer another heart attack, end up in hospital with heart failure, and nearly three times more likely to die than those who weren’t prescribed the drug.

The risks were greatest for women on higher doses, according to lead researcher Dr Borja Ibanez.

This is yet another example of how women’s health is too often sidelined, misunderstood or treated as an afterthought with life-threatening consequences.
