Frequently Asked Questions
How can I reduce my risk of heart disease?
Key modifiable risk factors include smoking, high blood pressure, elevated LDL cholesterol, physical inactivity, excess body weight, and poorly controlled diabetes. Regular check-ups, medication when appropriate, and lifestyle modifications all contribute to meaningful risk reduction.
Is a stress test painful or risky?
Exercise stress tests are generally well-tolerated. Patients walk on a treadmill while heart activity is monitored. For those who cannot exercise adequately, pharmacological stress testing achieves the same diagnostic goals without physical exertion.
What symptoms should prompt a cardiology referral?
Chest pain or pressure, palpitations, unexplained shortness of breath, dizziness, fainting, and swelling in the legs are all symptoms that warrant evaluation by a cardiologist. A primary care provider can help determine whether a referral is appropriate.
