Hi everyone😎 I am a young 57 year old with heart disease. My heart attack was in 2001aged 39. Really frightened for the first 2 years but recovered. Went to university at 47 and graduated as a youth worker. New lease of life. What I am trying to say is heart disease doesn't stop you enjoying life again

That stage will go honestly. Every time your down think about me .nearly 20 years down the line. I still have a good drink and get on the dance floor 😂😎I know it's hard but once conquered anxiety will be a distant memory
