Description:Editorial Reviews “Living With Angina is a very important addition to our knowledge of this important subject. Dr. James Pantano leaves the text books aside and talks directly to us. Read this book and thank my later. Larry King, Mutual Broadcasting Company. “I have reviewed many medical books for this column, and there is one chapter of this book I feel probably is the single most important service the author does: You and Your Doctor. Decidedly written from the doctor’s side of the fence, this small, but effective chapter on a doctor/patient relationship should be read by every person who ever visits a doctor.” Dennis Cole Hill, Daytona Herald “The book has both straightforward explanations of the technologies and an absorbing, running collection of anecdotes, especially about the truth on exercise and diet. Geoffrey Mehl, Vim & Vigor Family Health Magazine “The subtitle reads ‘A Cardiologist’s Guide to Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment, the Doctor/Patient Relationship, and How to Lead a Normal and Productive Life,’ and that is just what it does. The success of such books depends on the author’s knack for explaining the issues clearly and accurately, using nontechnical language and analogies that a lay reader can easily comprehend. Dr. James Pantano, a cardiologist in Allentown Pennsylvania succeeds on all counts. William B. Ober, M.D., book review in MD Reads “Living With Angina is your guide to getting well through informed communication with your doctor – a relationship that can make life, once again, normal and relatively pain free.” HarperCollins Publishers, New York From the Author This book was written to fill a void in the lay literature on heart disease. Entire shelves can be filled with people's notions of how to avoid coronary artery disease or how to get rid of it once it becomes symptomatic. I will try to span the middle ground discussing simply how you can live comfortably with the symptoms of coronary artery disease, especially the pain of angina pectoris. If you have angina, you have coronary artery disease. You're faced with the simple alternatives of bypass surgery, coronary angioplasty, or living with your angina with the aid of your doctor's advice and prescribed medications. The way you interact with your angina and your doctor will in large part determine whether a medical program is successful. The result can be the difference between having some symptoms or no symptoms and that is no small difference. It can mean the difference between disability payments or early retirement or a full pension with the health to enjoy it. Angina symptoms affect patients differently, both physically and psychologically. A basic knowledge of the symptoms and treatment of coronary artery disease and the effects of your medications will enable you to carry on relatively normal day-to-day activities. I am addressing angina as it exists in real people in the real world. Angina need not control your life-style. You can be an active participant in the control of your angina and intelligently assist your physician’s attempts to minimize risk and symptoms. Your active participation in your own care, based on what you may find pertinent in this book, will lessen your burden of living with angina. Informed communication with your physician will be the theme of this book.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
