HEART FAILURE: Colin's story

After recovering from a heart attack, Colin, a keen cyclist and runner, was aware of the physical signs still telling him all wasn't well. In this episode, Rob Underwood from the BHF, discovers how insistent he remained in seeking medical advice to establish the reason which eventually led to further heart surgery. Colin goes on to stress the importance of always listening to your body even if, as in his case, you consider yourself to be leading a significantly active lifestyle.
