Heart disease doesn’t always show up the way we expect. This real-life testimonial below from a past patient highlights why listening to your instincts — and getting the right information — can make all the difference:
▪️Trusting Your Gut Can Save Your Life!
Heart disease doesn’t always come with loud warning signs.
My father passed away from a heart attack, and my mother had also struggled with heart issues. Because of my family history, I tried to stay proactive with my health. Still, I never imagined I had serious heart disease of my own. I had no chest pain, no shortness of breath, no classic symptoms. The only red flag was that my blood pressure remained high—even while taking four different blood pressure medications.
Despite all of that, my numbers wouldn’t come down.
Something didn’t feel right.
I learned that you don’t always need a doctor’s order to get a heart scan. If you feel the need, you can request one yourself. I decided to listen to my instincts and move forward with the scan, even though I had to pay for it out of pocket.
That decision changed my life.
The scan revealed three significant heart blockages—something I never would have known otherwise. Those findings ultimately led to open heart surgery. Without that scan, my story could have ended very differently.
Heart disease doesn’t always announce itself. Sometimes it’s silent. Sometimes it looks like “controlled” symptoms that aren’t really controlled at all. If you have a family history, unexplained high blood pressure, or just a deep sense that something isn’t right—listen to that voice.
Advocating for your health is not overreacting.
It’s not being dramatic.
It’s being responsible.
A heart scan may give you peace of mind—or it may save your life. Either way, you are worth knowing the truth. ▪️
