My first post, Suspected Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
This year I passed out at work through a bad coughing fit and again they sent me to hospital but this time they investigated further and sent me for an ECG and
echocardiogram
which showed up I have enlargement and hypertrophy of the main left chamber of the heart with thickening of the wall separating

How to lose 5kg (11lb) in 24 hrs.
Now I knew that I was carrying a lot of oedema as a recent
echocardiogram
has confirmed advanced heart failure and my left leg was almost 50% larger than my right with massive stomach bloating, this despite 80 mg a day of furosemide, naturally I have discontinued that for a while as need to replace fluid

Chest pain, Arm pain
Hi, Just thought i would give an update as regards to my situation. The chest pain are coming as a result of muscle pains. The gastrologist found the root of the pain as he was pressing down different parts of my chest. I'm taking some anti inflammatories and a proton pump inhibtor so that i won't have

Tricuspid Valve regurgitation (leaking)
Now the tricuspid valve shows obvious signs of regurgitation with associated breathlessness (ECG and
Echocardiogram
) Heard today about keyhole surgery but is this restricted to the Mitral Valve? Has anyone had experience of Tricuspid repair/replacement?

Cardiac Catheterization recommended
My ejection fraction (
echocardiogram
) was satisfactory (soon to be repeated.) I have had left axis-bifascicular block and right bundle branch block diagnosed from my ECG. ECG's during stress testing remained stable. Now I'm having a cardiac catheterization recommended.

Anyone been to Bordeaux for an Ablation?
Has anyone been there an if so could they tell me:_ 1) How long before the Ablation did you have the Transoesophageal
Echocardiogram
done and how sore was your throat afterwards? 2) How did you get from the airport there to your accommodation? 3) Did you have to fast before the procedure?

Ascending Aortic Aneurysm Repair
I will have a cardiac catheterization and a
echocardiogram
on the 16th, and then the following day I will have my surgery. Depending on the results of the testing on the 16th, I will either have an aneurysm repair or aneurysm repair plus bypass, etc.

help please.
I have had an
Echocardiogram
. today got a letter saying that overall the pumping function of your heart is reasonable. it is possible in one area that the pumping function is slightly reduced and this may be secondary to your bypass surgery I have written to your gp asking him to start an ACE inhibitor

Pace and Ablate
I am going for an
echocardiogram
tomorrow as evidently I need to be in heart failure with an ejection fraction of less than 30% to qualify for bi-ventricular. I somehow don’t think I am there yet! EP is going above and beyond to fight my corner but things have ground to a stalemate.

TGIF Peeps_IMPORTANT
They ordered a Cardiac Stress test and a
Echocardiogram
, they want to make sure that the smoking has not caused any heart damage. They also told me that I can not resume the gym until I am done with the Prednisone and I have to go slow they don't want me to bring on a potential heart attack .

Atrial Flutter and Shingles
Three weeks ago my tachycardia didn't settle down so I ended up in hospital for a chemical cardioversion (unsuccessful) and a successful electric cardioversion following a trans-oesophageal
echocardiogram
. I was then diagnosed with Atrial Flutter which the doctors said is in addition to my MAT.

Don't know what to do!
My ankles are hideously swollen and am due to have
echocardiogram
to rule out heart trouble. I do not tolerate any medication well and am terrified of more side effects, but I have had four spinal fractures over the last 2 years and they say I will only get more.

Doubting my diagnosis of COPD.
I did have an
echocardiogram
that shows a moderately enlarged right ventricle but with normal ejection fraction and only borderline pulmonary hypertension with a PAP of 21.

Been a while! Now Pericarditis?
I had a stress
echocardiogram
last week which I'm waiting on the results for. However I am wondering now if what I'm feeling is indeed something else. I'm now wondering if this pain is actually pericarditis. Having just reviewed the symptoms it seems a close match.
