How is coronary heart disease treated?

If you have coronary heart disease, if you have been found to have it, if the diagnosis has been made, you need to be working with your health care professional to make certain that whatever was the event that led him to understand that you have coronary heart disease doesn't happen again. If it was a heart attack or an episode of angina, we need to be doing all the preventive things that we can do to keep you safe and have you live a long and healthy life. We can do that now because we have many, many different ways to treat the risk factors that would make you likely to go on and have a second heart attack or a stroke or a complication. So working with your health care provider can give you a very long and healthy life, one that people in decades before this really never had the chance to have.
