Some heart conditions are congenital (from birth) and others are acquired (i.e., virus, medication).

warning sign and symptom of a heart condition:​

  • fainting or seizure during or after physical activity or result from   emotional excitement , emotional distress or startle .
  • chest pain or discomfort / racing heartbeat .
  • unexplained fainting or seizure .
  • Unusual shortness of breath, fatigue.
  • Dizziness or light headedness during or after physical activity.
  • Family history of heart disease, unexpected sudden death during physical activity or during a seizure or any other sudden, unexplained death of a healthy family member under age 50.  For more information, please visit www.parentheartwatch.org.
