What is myocardial bridging? Why might someone with myocardial bridging have a heart attack? What is The Heart Chamber?
Boots Knighton is a 45-year-old myocardial bridging survivor from Victor, Idaho, and an avid mountain biker. She suffered a heart attack while biking when she was in her 40s. To correct the myocardial bridging, she underwent open-heart surgery in 2021. Her experiences have inspired her to start a podcast, called “The Heart Chamber,” and she is also working on a book.
In this episode, we'll learn about how Boots' condition was diagnosed, why she started a podcast, and how she's also writing a book.
