Hi everyone. I don't usually stop by here too often. This is all new to us. My dh recently suffered two heart attacks and just had quadruple bypass. He unfortunately has too much heart damage (low ef, leaky valve, dead tissue and some other medical terms) from the attacks and cannot go back to work. He has numerous doctors now and three of them have told him that he cannot be out for too long when it's extremely warm/hot or extremely cold/freezing out among other things. One of his doctors actually suggested he also should think about getting a handicap tag for his car for when he has to walk far when experiencing hot/freezing weather.
We normally go to WDW during the summer months - so I am assuming this is out now for him?
Again, this is all new to us. I have been searching the web and have read heat can be fatal.
Anyone have any experience/feedback on heart condition w/heat - who wants to wait to find out what happens........
I would also like to add it's tough trying to remember he has many physical limitations when he looks fine (sometimes - other times he looks like a ghost).
Thanks everyone.
