Summary:
"Heart disease kills more women every year than all forms of cancer combined. Recovering from a major heart attack, journalist Carolyn Thomas wrote this book based on her own experience and the experiences of other women with the disease, compiled through blog posts at myheartsisters.org and Thomas's experiences as a participant at Mayo Clinic's medical conference on women's heart disease. She explains how to recognize the early signs, explains why so many women are misdiagnosed, and covers to what to expect during your recovery"--Provided by publisher.
