The Cardiologist Lovington, NM Looks To

Are you unsure if you need to see a cardiologist? Booking an appointment is in your health's best interest if:



• You're having chest discomfort.
• You suddenly have high blood pressure.
• You're having diabetes complications.
• You have a history of smoking or chewing tobacco.
• You have a kidney disease.
• You've had high cholesterol in the past.
• You've been experiencing shortness of breath.
• You're experiencing frequent left shoulder pain.
• You've been experiencing heartburn and/or back and stomach pain.
• You think your heartbeat is irregular.

If your family has a history of heart disease, it's a good idea to book an appointment with a cardiologist as early as possible. This way, you can discuss your risk factors as well as preventative strategies you can take to reduce your risk of developing heart disease. While people aged 65 and older are more likely to develop heart disease, it's a good idea to be aware of your own family history and personal health. You can get checked out as early as age 20! It's better to be proactive when you're young instead of waiting until you're older to be aware of heart disease and its effects.
