No not at all. I play trivia every Thursday night with a group I met on Meetup.com and I exercise at the recreation center in town with people my own age. I moved to Georgia was I was 62 and I have a nice group of friends. People my own age and people younger than me. Lots of us have different conditions. Even some of my younger friends. I don't let my heart disease dictate my life and if I can move somewhere new and make friends in my 60s (I did not work a regular job so I did not meet them at work) anyone can find and make new friends at any time in their life. Meetup is a great way to meet people who have similar interests. Join clubs ( my husband belongs to an amateur radio club) get involved in the community, go to the senior center (they have loads of fun stuff to do) take a class... don't let yourself use your heart condition and other conditions as a way to isolate yourself from wonderful new relationships. Live life, it is beautiful and who knows how much of it any of us have left. Hugs🤗

Thank you

I have met some new people and friends since my heart disease started.

Hi, it's a more than reasonable consideration. 'Socialisation' is very much part of ongoing cardiac rehabilitation. I still do things and meet people from established interests but my heart condition has brought me into contact with different people. Main difference is that I tend to avoid noisy places and people! ( which isn't a bad thing).
Things change including yourself and I guess part of that involves changes in yourself, acceptance and importantly 'liking' the changing person, if that makes sense.
