Angina is a symptom of an underlying heart condition, typically caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscle due to narrowed coronary arteries. While angina itself is not directly fatal, it is a serious warning sign that can indicate a higher risk of more severe cardiac events, such as a heart attack or stroke, which can be fatal. Each year, it's estimated that **1 in every 100 people with stable angina will have a fatal heart attack or stroke**, and as many as **1 in 40 people will have a non-fatal heart attack or stroke**. However, it's important to note that angina is not a direct cause of death; rather, it is a signal that there is a problem with the heart's blood supply that needs to be addressed. Taking appropriate medical advice and making lifestyle changes can considerably reduce the risk of developing these complications. This includes managing stress, eating a heart-healthy diet, engaging in regular physical activity, maintaining a healthy weight, and avoiding tobacco use. read more >>
