A member asked:
Very good evening doctors. how often should people with a history of heart disease get heart tests and which tests in particular should be administered and repeated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
That would depend on the type of heart disease and the effect it has on the activities of daily living. For some it might be every few years, for others, every year or more often depending on the case. An annual exam where you discuss such issues with your primary doctor is a valuable screening that should be done.
