Answered by Dr. Nagi Azzi
Hello
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
Understanding your family history is crucial in assessing your cardiovascular well-being. If you have a family history of cardiovascular conditions or sudden cardiac death, it could indicate a genetic predisposition to such issues. This information helps us evaluate your risk factors more accurately and develop a proactive approach to managing your cardiovascular health. Regular screenings and lifestyle modifications can play a significant role in minimizing these risks and promoting a healthier heart.
Thanks
