♥ Start a love affair with your heart ♥
Make an appointment to have your heart checked.
Many women see their gynecologist as their primary care physician, and never have their hearts checked by internists or cardiologists. (It’s a good idea to have a complete physical by an internist or general practitioner – someone who is familiar with your whole body!)
Get a stress test, an echocardiogram, an EKG, a C-reactive protein test, and whatever else your doctor recommends. Get all your bloodwork done, too, so you can see your cholesterol and triglyceride numbers.
