I have had 4 attacks in the past but am being constantly monitored as I have type 1 diabetes. I have just had a result from an echo-cardiogram which showed some diastolic LV dysfunction with slight LA dilation. I do not understand what this but do not want to Google and scare the life out of myself! I am waiting for a virtual appointment but in the meantime would like some advice from anyone that has the same or similar diagnosis.

Hi the best person to explain this is your GP or your Cardio Nurse.
Yes of course which would normally be the case. Unfortunately I cannot get through to either. My sister who has posted on this site previously advised me to put a post up in the meantime.
Hello KateG2020
Welcome to the forum.
We are living in a challenging time especially as access to our GP or Cardiologist maybe difficult at the moment
Perhaps give the Cardiac nurses on the BHF helpline a call? They are always very helpful and knowledgeable
Not what you're looking for?
