Good morning, I hope I can help. I've been there when there's no reply and it can leave you feeling so alone. Yes, it is a degree of heart failure. It means that the left ventricle of your heart is not working sufficiently well to pump oxygenated blood throughout the body. If you key in 'moderate lv dysfunction' on google, it gives the ranges/explains it for you. You don't say what medication you are taking, though it could be you are on some that will help with the efficiency?

Hello,

None of us here can give you a diagnosis, we are fellow heart patients not medically trained.

I suggest you ring the BHF helpline and speak to one of the Cardiac nurses, they are very knowledgeable and helpful.

Dr Google's consulting room does not always provide up to dats reliable information.

Have you discussed your results with your GP?
