ABC Radio Brisbane presenter Kelly Higgins-Devine's diagnosis prompts warning

ABC Radio Brisbane Evenings presenter Kelly Higgins-Devine could have ignored the warning when she felt a slight chest pain while walking.

"My heart rate would start to go up, and I'd start to feel breathless and I'd get a slight ache in my chest," Higgins-Devine said.

She said she was lucky to have had it.

"A lot of people get no notice that something is wrong," she said.

Higgins-Devine visited her general practitioner and was quickly scheduled for several tests.

Echocardiograms, a stress test and an angiogram revealed two of her arteries were running out of time.
