Almost everyone knows someone who has suffered from heart disease or a stroke. As the leading cause of death in the United States, cardiovascular disease claims 2,200 lives every day. February is American Heart Month, a time to raise awareness about heart health.
Symptoms of heart disease include chest pain or discomfort, which can make your heart feel heavy, or as if someone is squeezing it. Shortness of breath, fatigue and general weakness are also signs. While many people do feel these symptoms, some people with heart disease won’t experience any of them. Doctors can also run certain tests before making a diagnosis.
