Need another persuasive reason to quit your high-stress job?
New research suggests strain at work puts you at risk of not just one heart attack, but more than one.
The Canadian study took a look at men and women who returned to stressful jobs after having major heart trouble.
The findings were startling.
Middle-aged heart attack victims who went back to their stressful jobs were twice as likely to suffer a second heart attack or related problem, and in some of those cases, the second heart attack was fatal.
