The first days and weeks after you get out of the hospital after a cardiac event or diagnosis can be a frightening, confusing time. You may be taking new medicines and following many new instructions. You may sometimes feel as if your world has changed. Focusing on three simple tasks can help you manage your condition while you recover and regain your strength: Your treatment plan is designed to lower your risk factors for continued or future heart problems such as cholesterol and blood pressure. Know your treatment goals. Reacting quickly may be the key to preventing a future heart attack or stroke. Know what symptoms require immediate action. Know who to call and where to go if you have symptoms of a possible heart attack or stroke. |
