A lot of people have heart attacks and you just can't live the rest of your life in fear from it.

WebMD has a pretty good Guide on Heart Disease.

Thanks TD! Doctors here are extremely shitty, and I don?t say that lightly. They cannot do math in their heads (hey, I?m no math whiz, but then again I?m not ODing people by giving them too much meds either!). Last time I had a serious problem (got really bad strep throat) the doctor ?added up? in his head wrong, was going to give me triple the prescribed dosage. Another doc there tried to prescribe me some med with penicillin in it after repeatedly telling the fucktard I?m allergic to penicillin? I don?t have any faith in the docs here, trying to do a bit of research to help my friend out so the doctors don?t kill em next time he gets a check up *_* Thx again.
