At just 29 years of age, Tom Lockyer’s Sudden
Cardiac
Arrest
(SCA) story proves that a SCA does not discriminate. It can happen to anybody, at any time, in any age.

heart anxiety
I’m always thinking about having a
cardiac
arrest
or not waking up in my sleep, having a stroke. Very aware it’s not a healthy way of thinking but I can become very pessimistic about it. Statistically it doesn’t look good having all these conditions and I just worry.

Gestational diabetes and heart conditions
I've currently just got to monitor my diet and blood sugars, I also have hypothyroidism (been controlled for a while now) So with my heart issues (small hole, a
cardiac
arrest
and heart attack, and recovered from myocarditis) is there anything else I should do to look after myself diet wise, or anything

Contradicting Dietary Advice
I have a dilemma, I have heart failure and am at increased risk of
cardiac
arrest
because I have had one already. I also have stage 3 chronic kidney disease + type 2 Diabetes.

When CPR chest compressions and an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) are used together, the chances of survival from SCA (Sudden
Cardiac
Arrest
) increase from 9% to 50%. This is why it is vital we know where our nearest AED is located, and how to use it.

Support and help after heart attack and cardiac arrest
When paramedics arrived this was confirmed and I then went into
cardiac
arrest
and rushed straight to hospital and into theatre to have stents inserted . I have been told I have heart disease and I am still struggling come to terms with any of this all feels surreal.

Cardiac arrest....recovery hope
I had a
cardiac
arrest
on Christmas eve. I was resuscitated for over 2 hours. I was in hospital for 7 weeks and returned home in February. I am reaching out for anyone who has had something similar. I am struggling to walk without aid and feel off balance.
