SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO PASS ON INFORMATION
I have been reading post after post on Carolyn Thomas’s blog, Heart Sisters, and I want to pass on the information that it is FULL of stories about how heart attacks and other cardiac events are different in women – and how bad we are at paying attention to some of the symptoms, and getting ourselves safely (don’t drive yourself, don’t let someone drive you – call 911) to the ER.
All about women and heart disease from the unique perspective of CAROLYN THOMAS, a Mayo Clinic-trained women’s health advocate, heart attack survivor, blogger, speaker on the west coast of Canada
My suggestion? Go visit – and read a few posts.
Then BOOKMARK the blog for the future, for when you may need the information from a woman’s perspective that will make you do the right thing.
The link above goes to the archives. I wish I’d had this information before today – everything I’ve been reading and writing was in reaction to the distinctly male style of research papers.
Medicine could really use an overhaul of how it presents information to women; meanwhile, we have Carolyn.
Thank you so much for the advice. On my way!

I kind of swallowed it whole over several days. There is a lot of information there.

There is just SO much information – and all written in human-English.
I easily got lost there – all of it so true and so useful.
