viral/ covid cardiomyopathy

[Carolalicia1]

I had a bad cough and chest infection for a few weeks then started get very put of breath and my heart racing , I was sent to the hospital and admitted and after a long while was told that I had viral/covid cardiomyopathy, I have never had problems with my heart , I had been discharged and had to wait until I had an echocardiogram ( which I’ve had) now have to wait another two weeks until results. I am terrified that I will be like this forever and worrying so much as I really don’t understand whether I the virus has damaged my heart permanently, the drs were so busy at the hospital I couldn’t really ask them . Is it normal for some days to feel worse than others and to not sleep and feel worse in the morning s and gradually feel better as the day progresses. Can anyone give advice really worried

Hello

I am sorry about your diagnosis and I can imagine how you have been struggling

I am wondering by now if you have had your results and how you are doing ? x
