ejection fraction

well I saw my cardiologist last week and my ejection fraction has gone from 30 to 55

I’m in the normal range

Showed images of my HF heart and my heart beating now - it’s a miracle and medicine

Thanks to entresto and my other meds and exercise and diet I’m doing well - basically discharged but stay on meds apart from the heavy blood thinner - go back to aspirin and monitor myself and any symptoms which I can do

scan showed two crystal clear arteries and one with minor calcification so no intervention needed there

I’m very happy - but still feel very tired - wonder if that’s the meds as heart rate 55 and blood pressure 110

specialist happy and all my bloods were normal - he can’t explain why my heart failed - maybe a virus

Maybe a Covid side effect - but never mind I’m good to go for now

said it wasn’t typical of stress heart

Hello :-)

This is great news I can imagine how happy it has made you feel :-)

The tiredness could be down to the medications you take if it continues have a word with your Doctor they may be able to adjust them :-) x
