Heart attack. : You are definitely at risk. The risk factors are your smoking, high blood pressure (reguardles of the medication), and age. Also I bet you are on the sedentary side rather than active. And if you add possibly overweight. Then...but I am sure you know all this. The good news is that you can do something about most of these risk factors. You can not change you age. But the rest is in your power!!!
