Our hearts are with Susan Lucci

Lucci faced heart disease, undergoing her first surgery in 2019. Her main artery was 90% blocked, requiring two stents. Years later, she had another emergency heart procedure in 2022. Afterward, she shared her health battles openly to encourage women to listen to their bodies. Despite initially feeling embarrassed about her symptoms, she spoke up after her second surgery, revealing how she felt pain in her ribcage, back, and jaw.

With her husband’s encouragement, she sought medical help, ultimately surviving a heart scare. Her doctor emphasized the importance of reacting early to symptoms to prevent heart attacks.
