LVH ON ECG

[kalgs]

Anyone been diagnosed with LVH following an ECG ?

There are quite a few people on the forum with LVH. If you type LVH into the search box at the top right you can bring up the posts. Hopefully, some of them will see your question.

You might get some information from the BHF forum too - it's here:

I had mild LVH on one of my hospital reports. I believe it was picked up from a ultrasound echocardiogram not from the ECG. As no one at the hospital mentioned it I went to my GP and she was not concerned at it being only mild. I have never looked further in to it. I can see from Dr Google that it can show up on an ECG.

Sorry I got interrupted on the reply. I can see from Google that it can also be picked up from an ECG.

[kalgs in reply to KMRobbo]

Yes it can . I’ve been told by medics it’s then confirmed by echo .

How is your LVH now as I have just had the same diagnosis

[KMRobbo in reply to NLGA]

TBH no idea as I have not had an echo since Jan 2018. I doubt there is a problem.

Have you ever had an echocardiogram? That would be normal before being considered for Flecainide which is contraindicated if you have a structural abnormality of the heart. Do you have angina?
