Heart failure

I went to hospital with covid due to unbelievable fatigue and while there they decided I also had heart failure. I am now home and feel extremely well do not get short of breath do not have swollen ankles do not have chest pain can walk one kilometre without puffing.

I am going back to the hospital in a few days for further testing but I am just curious, is it possible to have severe heart failure and have no symptoms?

Hello :-)

I am glad you are feeling a lot better now :-)

I think mostly with heart failure we do get symptoms shortness of breath but sometimes we do not always relate it to our hearts and put it to the back of our minds till it gets so bad and we get diagnosed

Others may have a different opinion that is just mine

If you have had your other tests done I hope hey have gone well :-) x
