Living With a Heart Condition
Your heart beats around 100,000 times every day.
It pumps about 23,000 litres of blood around your body. But what
happens when it doesn't work as well as it should?
We explain what happens when the function of your heart is
affected, the tests you may undergo, how it can be treated - and
information about your recovery. We have information on other
everyday life issues such as driving and returning to work.
You can also find out about our essential resources and how to
get support.
