What are the possible outcomes for myocardial infarction?

Life&Death: Having a myocardial infarction should be avoided. The proximate cause is epicardial adipose tissue (eat) which happens with visceral adipose tissue (vat).

Several: Most people recover with little complications. Some suffer cardiac arrest and die suddenly. A small group have major myocardial infarctions resulting in substantial and disablling damage to the heart. Shortness of breath and loss of energy can occur. Recurrent myocardial infarctions are not uncommon in those who continue to have high risk factors that are not addressed.
