"I've never smoked, done drugs or abused alcohol, and I'm not overweight. My only risk factor is a long line of heart attacks on my mom's side of the family. Back in December I made an appointment with my doc. She listened to my heart and told me she wasn't comfortable with the amount of PVCs she was hearing. I saw the cardiologist and the results showed I have a PFO (hole in my heart) and enlarging of my right ventricle. As far as I knew I was a healthy 27-year-old." — itsmebeck2
