Broken heart syndrome: 'My Dad had died and my youngest had gone to university so I suppose they were two very monumental life events for me'

In Scotland, the first registry of takotsubo patients is being developed.

"It could be somebody who copes very well and then they have a moment when signals don't connect in the brain like they normally do. "This is very much false, in fact in Northern Ireland twice as many women die from coronary heart disease than breast cancer," he said.The Department of Health was unable to provide statistics on the number of people in Northern Ireland who have had broken heart syndrome.

"The Department already ensures that, in the development of health promotion strategies and plans, we include relevant actions targeting women, or men, where there is a difference in behaviours or outcomes," the department said in a statement.

Maith thú Michelle, wishing u well xx

Is this a joke? My GP sent me home with aspirin when I informed her my sight comes and goes at 50. I recently went private - diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I am a part time runner - 40 miles a week. Load of crap - men get special treatment - nonsense.

I think it's important to point out that even chronic stress can cause takotsubo. There is often no identifiable 'event' and it doesn't only happen to menopausal women.

Vaccine damage ?

That is fascinating, and Michelle spoke so well about those health inequalities affecting women. There’s still too much ‘bikini medicine’ being practiced ie assuming women are the same as men except for the bits a bikini covers. That’s not true and that assumption is killing us
