10 Broken Heart Syndrome Symptoms
Symptom #10: Heart Failure
Heart failure is different from a heart attack. A heart attack occurs when the supply of blood to the heart is stopped, whereas heart failure means that the heart is unable to pump blood as well as it should. This can be down to various conditions such as problems with the heart’s muscle to blockages in the body’s blood vessels.
Heart failure is often treated with medication and patients may suffer with it for several years. It will often get gradually worse, potentially becoming very dangerous for the patient. Thankfully, people suffering from broken heart syndrome are likely to make a full recovery.
