HEART FAILURE: Colin's story

After the challenging recovery from his heart attack, Colin, a keen, active cyclist and runner, knew the physical signs were telling him that all still wasn't well. In this episode, Rob Underwood from the BHF, discovers how persistant he was in finding out the real reason which eventually led to further heart surgery. Colin emphasises the importance of always listening to your body even if you consider yourself to be leading a significantly active lifestyle.
