How would you differentiate between a heart attack and heart burn? – Good advice by Dr harold   How would you differentiate between a heart attack and heart burn? This is something that every householder must be aware of. I had the experience recently when my wife at 2 am complained of chest pain and also burning sensation in the chest after returning from a dinner party at a friend’s home.

I hear stories – reluctantly told – of them being “trapped” in their home; of not being able to do the things we take for granted. Of feeling alone. And somewhat helpless. We can go to for a walk or a swim to ease our joints. They can’t. But what if we could take the equivalent of the gym to them? The reason I raise this is I received an email from an old friend of mine in Colombo.
