uhh...yes it is..they are the same thing..the technical term is acute myocardial infarction, and while it isnt unheard of for people with anorexia to have MIs, there is also a biological predisposition for females that have not yet reached menopause to NOT be succeptible to cardiac arrest as part of their body needing to be able to endure the stress of childbirth
