Knowledge can be your superpower!
Learning about your heart condition is the first step on your road to recovery and improving your heart health. Educate yourself so you understand your diagnosis and what it means. Ask your doctor or another member of your healthcare team to explain your condition. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and keep asking until you fully understand. Diagrams may also be helpful.
