A study reported by The American Heart Association in February 2000, concluded that smoking marijuana can precipitate a heart attack in persons with preexisting heart conditions.
Yes, a heart stent can be considered a preexisting condition, particularly in the context of health insurance. Preexisting conditions refer to medical issues that existed before obtaining a new health insurance policy. If you have had a heart stent placed prior to applying for insurance, it may affect coverage options and premiums. However, specific definitions and implications can vary between insurance providers and policies.
Tests, of any kind, are not included in the definition of preexisting condition. You have to be given a definitive diagnosis from that testing in order to have a preexisting condition. If by having a heart cath test, it was determined that you did not need to have one placed, then you do not have a preexisting condition. For example, you may have an MRI/CAT Scan and then a PET Scan to determine if you have cancer, but if they find you do not have cancer, then you are not diagnosed with a condition, therefore cannot considered preexisting. I should add that, generally if a Dr. wants to evaluate for a heart cath, then you currently have or have had issues with your heart in the past. This may be something like a high percentage blockage, irregular heart beat, thickening of the lining around your heart, etc. This would be considered a preexisting condition and future insurance companies may determine that any intervention needed on your heart would be preexisting. However, insurance companies usually have a preexisting time frame (generally 12 or 24 months) in which a condition is no longer consider preexisting. For example, if you were diagnosed with a heart condition 13 months ago and the insurance company you are planning on joining policy is a 12-month limit on pre-existing conditions, then you are in the clear and the preexisting condition clause does not apply to you.
The Tensilon test may cause heart rhythm abnormalities, especially in those patients with preexisting conditions.
Not to be used by pregnant women or by those with heart conditions. Smoking marijuana may negatively effect the lungs. Is considered a narcotic and banned by the United States government. And more . . .
Yes, high stress can contribute to the development of an anterior infarction (heart attack). Stress can lead to an increase in blood pressure and heart rate, which in turn can strain the heart muscle and potentially trigger a heart attack, particularly in individuals with preexisting heart conditions. It is important to manage stress levels for overall heart health.

The impact of arteriosclerosis on the body (hardening of vessels due to cholesterol deposits) can be heart attack, stroke, and other serious conditions.
Heart attacks are relatively rare in individuals under 30, but can occur due to genetic factors, lifestyle choices, or underlying health conditions. The exact number would depend on various factors, including preexisting health conditions, lifestyle choices, and genetic predisposition of individuals in that age group.
Yes, smoking PCP (phencyclidine) can increase the risk of a heart attack. PCP can lead to increased heart rate, elevated blood pressure, and other cardiovascular stresses, which can trigger heart-related issues, especially in individuals with preexisting conditions. Additionally, the stimulant effects of the drug may contribute to dangerous situations that elevate the likelihood of a heart attack.
no. Marijuana can be smoked as plentiful as possible, it does not affect your heart, only your brain.
