My Story…
On June 8th I will be walking to raise funds for research of SCAD,Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection. A SCAD heart attack starts with a tear in the wall of an otherwise normal artery. The tear tunnels within the wall of the artery, and its effect blocks the artery and blood flow to the heart muscles, leading to a heart attack. The tear in the artery may cause a flap that blocks the artery.
Although SCAD causes a small percentage of heart attacks overall, it’s responsible for 40% of heart attacks in women under the age of 50. And it mostly happens to women -- more than 90% of SCAD patients are female.
Research in the last 10 years has lead to more recognition of this HA and better treatment. More needs to be done to understand the cause and find better treatment. Please consider donating or joining my team. Thank you.
Donate to help Barbara raise money for National 5K SCADaddle for Research - Chicago area’s fundraising campaign.
