Veste îngrijorătoare: se poate muri de fericire. Care sunt simptomele afecțiunii și de ce poate fi mortală? • Newsweek România

Recent research highlights the potential dangers of extreme happiness, known as 'happy heart syndrome,' which can mimic a heart attack. A case study of a 65-year-old woman who experienced chest pain after her daughter's wedding illustrates this phenomenon. Despite initial confusion in diagnosis, it was determined that her heart was affected by a sudden surge of joy, leading to a condition called takotsubo cardiomyopathy. This syndrome, while often reversible, can pose serious health risks. Medical professionals are urged to recognize the impact of intense emotions, both positive and negative, on heart health.
