Deidre Arms, a medical professional specializing in women's health, was an energetic 46-year-old who cycled up to 32 miles a day. Despite her family's medical history, she believed her medical knowledge,passion for nutritious diet and supplements, and commitment to exercise were adequate in reducing her chances of suffering a stroke or heart attack. However, her cycling endurance suddenly plummeted, leaving her feeling easily worn out and short of breath. Medical professionals dismissed her symptoms as possibly adult-onset asthma.Two years later she suffered a heart attack. It was then that she encountered Dr. John Phillips, an Interventional Cardiologist and co-host of The Heart of Innovation. He guided her onto a path that not only saved her life but also led her to find her true life's calling: to educate, treat, and inspire others to enhance their cardiac health. Deidre shares her astonishing two-year struggle to make her doctors understand her situation and how she used this ordeal as a catalyst to prevent similar experiences for others
