Can a Heart Attack Affect Your Cancer?

1. Can a Heart Attack Affect Your Cancer? Cancer may start after a heart attack. According to a 2019 National Health Institute-funded study, those who have had a heart attack are more likely to acquire cancer than people who don’t have the condition. An individual’s risk of acquiring cancer is increased even by having a high risk for cardiovascular disease. Your chance of developing heart disease can be influenced by your health, lifestyle, and family history. Many of the risk factors for both cancer and cardiovascular disease are similar, such as smoking and poor nutrition. Heart conditions that develop after cancer treatment are- Cardiomyopathy Congestive heart failure Coronary artery disease Damage to heart valves Myocarditis Problems with pericardium Heart health may be protected by- Creating a survivorship plan Eating a healthy diet

2. Getting recommended cancer screenings Getting regular exercise Maintaining a healthy diet Keeping up follow-up appointments Taking care of emotional health Heart attack or stroke also spurs breast cancers. Cancers increase after heart attacks because the immune system goes into overdrive when the arteries get clogged. Immune response to clogged arteries and cancer makes its spread to other parts also. After a heart attack, a person has few cancer-fighting immune cells and more suppressor immune cells. These prevent the immune system from attacking cancer. By toning down the immune response against cancer, suppressor immune cells help cancers and tumors grow. This is the mechanism behind heart attacks and cancer relationships. “HEART PROBLEMS CAUSE CANCERS AND VICE-VERSA. CANCER TREATMENTS CAUSE HEART PROBLEMS CALLED CARDIAC TOXICITY POST-CHEMOTHERAPYAS A SIDE EFFECT” A person with a heart attack may be vulnerable to developing cancer down the road as explained above. People who suffered a heart health scare — a heart attack, heart failure, or a dangerously erratic heart rhythm — had a more than sevenfold increased risk for subsequently developing cancer, compared to those with healthy tickers. Heart patients suffer from lots of stressors that lead to cancer- Inflammation Stress on the immune system Hormonal changes Low levels of blood oxygen Biochemical secretion during heart attacks Stress to all body cells Compared to the general population, cancer patients have a more than twofold increased chance of developing a deadly cardiac disease. The chance of dying from heart disease increases over time following cancer diagnosis despite declining within the first year of diagnosis. As these are essential organs, the brain, lungs, kidneys, and liver are also affected by a heart attack. Cancer can develop in any organ or in any other portion of the body.
