heart failure

[Wanheda1]

so I see a heart failure nurse and I have been put on spironolactone, Dapagliflozin and Losartan but according to her I don’t have heart failure she explained it as the left side of my heart isn’t pumping right but I’m more confused than ever, is anyone in the same situation as me?

You should ask what condition it is that you have been diagnosed with specifically, so you can read up on it, and know exactly what it is you have, you have a right to be informed.

I did but I don’t have a good memory it was left something apparently it gets called heart failure by mistake a lot even by doctors

[JHutton1994 in reply to Wanheda1]

Ah yes, I remember (no pun intended) you really ought to start writing these things down. You may want to ask the doctor what your active diagnoses are, and write them down while he says them.

it would be a good idea to take someone with you at least to take notes, next time.
