Hello potatoehead123
I had done my echocardiogram on 16 December , my ejection fraction was 24%, again complete shock to me and family. Im on all usual meds.
Abit strange, going from 20-25% then 47%. Even though its a positive sign.
Take care
Sami
Someone more experienced will be along shortly to advise I’m sure, but it is possible for your EF to improve dramatically with the right cocktail of meds. There is a specific heart failure charity called Pumping Marvellous which has lots of good resources and advice on their website. pumpingmarvellous.org/ Good Luck.
