Tresorie – HEART DISEASE [Heart Disease]

“Many fairly normal persons with
symptoms suggesting heart trouble are sure they have a serious heart
disease; and many with serious heart disease have no symptoms suggesting
heart trouble. The patients with real cardiac trouble suffer mostly from
weakness, shortness of breath, cough, swelling of the feet, and
disturbance of the liver, stomach, and bowels. They are seldom conscious
of their heart action, no matter how irregular or tumultuous it may be.
Even those with heart blows so loud that they can be heard at a distance
look curiously about the room to see where the sound comes from. Those who
feel the heart pound (palpitation) or skip or race are usually those
nervous patients with fatigue neuroses or those who smoke too much, or who
drink too much coffee; and such persons are seldom very ill.”.
