February is American Heart Month
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in Louisiana. If you have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholestorel or use tobacco, you may be at risk for cardiovascular disease. Warning signs such as chest pain, chest pressure, shortness of breath or leg swelling should not be ignored.
You don’t have to visit the emergency room for routine care. Make your heart health a priority this month by scheduling a visit with a heart & vascular specialist. Don’t wait until it’s too late!
