What's the biggest challenges of living with heart disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Different challenges: The challenges that face a person with heart disease are very different, depending on the type of problem, the severity of the disorder, and the age of the person. Some people have no visible symptoms, and live a normal lifestyle. Other people have such a weak heart that even walking is difficult. With children, some have problems that make them become short-of-breath and bluish with exertion.
