Your Body Is Speaking
A coronary thrombosis is the acute occlusion of a coronary artery by a blood clot. The blood that supplies your heart with oxygen can no longer flow. Within minutes, cardiac muscle tissue begins to die. This is not a metaphor — it is a life-threatening emergency. Coronary thrombosis is the medical emergency par excellence.
But there is a level behind the clot. A question that arises once the body has been stabilised. Why did your blood stop flowing at this particular point? Why there — in the vessels that feed the heart? Why now?
