- Hi,
-
- Can anyone tell me where I can get detailed information about how a
- heart attack is caused, what precautions/changes to lifestyle is
- required after suffering one and what, if anything, should such a person
- avoid doing -- specifically, are long flights (> 24 hours) too
- stressful, is it okay for such a person to be at an altitude of say
- 10000feet; and what precautions would be necessary if they can do these
- things but with caution.
-
- I would appreciate any info or pointers to literature that I can get for
- such info.
-
- Thanks,
- Aruna
