Thru Hiking the AT and Heart Disease
Anybody with medical history of heart disease thru hiked the AT?
I am a 52 year old man. At the age of 48 I had my first heart cath with stent placement. Followed a month later with another cath (and two more stent placements). I feel really healthy at this time. But have doubts on whether I should give up on this dream. My FP and cardiologist are ok with me doing this.
Any advice?
