Heart disease is the number one killer of women — yet many women feel completely healthy until something serious happens. In this powerful episode of the Prime Women’s Crazy Good Aging Podcast, host Dorothy Shore sits down with heart patient Cynthia Pharr and cardiologist Dr. Zarina Sharalaya, to uncover the silent warning signs women often miss. Cynthia shares her shocking journey from “I feel fine” to genetic heart diagnoses, dangerous arrhythmias, open heart surgery, and an implanted defibrillator — all without classic symptoms. Dr. Sharalaya explains why women are often under-tested and under-diagnosed, what numbers you must know, and how to advocate for your own heart health — especially after 50.
