Cardiovascular Disease Can be a Silent Killer During and After Pregnancy
›Stacy Ann Walker could have died.
During what she thought was going to be a normal exam, Stacy learned that she would need to have a C-section. While recovering in the hospital, she began to have breathing problems and after some testing was told that her heart had been scarred by an earlier bout of rheumatic fever. Shortly after, she also learned that she had heart failure, an enlarged heart, and problems with multiple heart valves.
She was 29.
