I'm fascinated with medical things. we all have bodies & it sure is nice to know how they work and what the names of things are.

that's why it's called a myocardial infarction aka a heart attack which is the death of the myocardium due to lack of blood flow and isn't related to cardiac arrest which is when the heart stops beating.

It's wonderful that if one knows Greek he can mostly figure out the medical answers by simply analyzing the words. 😊 cardium: heart, myo: muscle, endo: inside, epi: on top. 😉
