Hi,

It should be dilated cardiomyopathy. Did you consult a cardiologist? Even if you don't have any symptoms of shortness of breadth, fatigue, swelling of ankles / abdomen please follow the cardiologist's guidelines. If it is very early stage there could be a complete reversal. Please don't ignore.

All the best
