Interview with Claire Berouche, heart failure and being a hero
Claire was nominated in 2020 for the BHF Heart Hero Awards. She has contributed in amazing ways to raise awareness of heart failure and has had many TV interviews, been in national papers and BHF publications.
Claire tells us about her life growing up with type 1 diabetes.
Like many women she shares with us how she didn’t realise she was having a heart attack. It was nearly missed but the paramedics that carried out an ECG just in case even though her readings were all fine.
Claire was blue lighted to hospital and rushed straight to the Cath lab, hear how she woke up in ICU to be told she would be having a triple bypass.
