The former captain of the Indian cricket team, Sourav Ganguly, recently suffered a heart attack while he was exercising. He was lucky that he was able to get prompt medical attention and recovered. But he was a fit professional athlete who was used to exercise from a young age and even he suffered from cardiac problems.

- meheleventyone 5y agoI had a heart attack last year whilst swimming and at only 39 despite swimming five times a week and having no obvious underlying issues. It feels profoundly unfair!
- voisin 5y agoDid you ever get any insight from your doctors as to why it might have happened? High cholesterol? Family history? Sorry to hear that.
- meheleventyone 5y agoNo I have zero chronic conditions, no auto-immune disorders that might cause issues with clotting, family history and so on. Basically from a root cause perspective it's unexplained.
- makeset 5y agoSo sorry to hear that. Did you experience any warning signs before, like mild chest pains, palpitations, or shortness of breath, that day or in the weeks prior? Also, were you pushing yourself on that day compared to other days of your week, or did it just come out of nowhere at an average pace day?
- meheleventyone 5y agoI had chest pain a few days before and was getting over a cold but otherwise no.
