That fluttering feeling in your chest could be more significant than you realise. It might be Atrial Fibrillation (AF) – the most common type of sustained irregular heartbeat. 🧐 When the heart's upper chambers beat chaotically, it can prevent blood from being pumped properly. This can lead to clots, which increase the risk of stroke by about five times. A key danger is that AF can be 'silent', with many people experiencing no symptoms at all. An ECG is the definitive way to get a diagnosis. Were you aware of this hidden risk? Share your thoughts below. 👇

A heart attack isn't always the dramatic chest-clutching scene we see in movies, especially for women in Aotearoa. Heart disease is a leading cause of death for Kiwi women, but the signs can be subtle and are often dismissed. Beyond chest pain, be aware of these other warning signals: 😴 Unusual or extreme fatigue 😮‍💨 Shortness of breath 🤢 Nausea or indigestion 😣 Discomfort in the back, neck, jaw, or stomach Recognising these symptoms and seeking urgent help is vital. Were you aware the signs could be so different?

ECG or Echo? They might sound similar, but they give your doctor very different information about your heart. 🧐 Here’s a simple way to remember it: ❤️ An ECG checks the 'wiring' – your heart's electrical activity and rhythm. ❤️ An Echocardiogram (Echo) checks the 'structure' – it's an ultrasound showing how well your heart is functioning and pumping blood. It’s a common point of confusion! Does this simple breakdown help you understand the difference?

Did you know that persistent swelling in your feet, ankles, or legs could be more than just a minor issue? This condition, known as oedema, can sometimes be your body's way of signalling a problem with your heart. 😟 When the heart isn't pumping as strongly as it should, fluid can build up in the lower body. It's a key sign associated with heart failure, a condition that affects thousands of Kiwis. If you notice swelling along with unusual fatigue or shortness of breath, it's vital to see a health professional for a proper assessment. Is this a health connection you were aware of?

That blood pressure reading from your last clinic visit is just a single moment in time. 🕰️ For many people, simply being in a medical environment can cause a temporary spike in BP—a phenomenon known as white coat hypertension.

Pushing your limits in training? Your heart adapts! This can lead to 'Athlete's Heart'—a normal, healthy change where the heart gets stronger and more efficient at pumping blood. 💓 However, it's crucial to distinguish this from serious conditions that can sometimes appear similar. The key difference lies in the specific details of the heart's structure, which a specialist can accurately assess with imaging like an echocardiogram. Have you ever heard of the term 'Athlete's Heart' before? Let us know in the comments! 👇
