Im 28 and had a heart attack last year it was scary. I had an angioplasty with one stent and I'm on medications like clopitab, ecosprin, and prolomettonact now. My doctor recently said I'm recovering well and to just make some lifestyle changes, which I've been doing for a year I take 30-minute walks daily and have quit chewing tobacco. Heres what's been on my mind: Should I get married? Should I be worried about that? I was too embarrassed to ask my doctor about it, but it's been weighing on me a lot. I mean, can I lead a normal married life without putting myself at risk? Id really appreciate your advice.
