Good afternoon all, I am looking for some support and advice.
My husband aged 33 was very unwell after a COVID infection with a hacking cough and breathlessness. GP provided 3 days of antibiotics for chest infection which did not help. I took him to a&E one evening when he couldn't lay flat and was struggling to breathe, on checking his stats, his HR was 167.
He has been diagnosed with moderately dilated left ventricle with severely impaired systolic function, ejection fraction estimated at 20-25% with left ventricular global hypokinesia with dilated left atrial cavity and mild mitral regurgitation he has had a diagnosis of AF in the past which caused minimal issues, this was addressed in hospitaland is being treated with medication and we are awaiting a cardioversion.
He is now taking Entresto, Dapagliflozin, bisoprolol, digoxin and edoxaban.
He is having an MRI on sunday and a follow up next week.
I am really struggling to understand what this may look like for his future, Google has of course scared me senseless and I am hoping someone on this forum may be able to give me some advice or personal experiences ?
Thank you in advance x
