Simple Blood Test Can Help Predict Risk of Future Heart Attack

If you are healthy and have normal cholesterol levels but you wish to know whether you are nevertheless at risk of a future heart attack, there is an inexpensive blood test that can help you and your doctor assess your risk of a future heart attack or stroke.  According to a new study, the level of high sensitivity C-reactive protein in your blood is a very good predictor of your risk of future heart attack or stroke.  If you are concerned about your risk of future heart attack or stroke, ask your doctor to test your blood for high sensitivity C-reactive protein.
