Abalation Fears
He advised that I am in good health and from my
echocardiogram
my heart seems fine. I am aiming to get back to some level of normality and trying to be positive about the abalation. My wife has seen me go down hill with the AF episodes.

echocardiogram

New Diagnosis
In November last year I was diagnosed with Aortic Root Dilation from an
echocardiogram
at Royal Free. I have two appointments coming up one in March at vascular surgery clinic and in April at cardiology clinic. I have to say that I am not as devastated as when I got my son's diagnosed.

enalopril and diltiazam
He has just received an email with a copy letter to his GP saying as a result of his
echocardiogram
to put him enalopril. Does anyone else take this combination there is no mention of the diltiazam which he takes 240 each day. He has normal to low blood pressure.

Left ventricle impairment
My
echocardiogram
is showing left ventricle impairment. They want to do a second
echocardiogram
to check for accuracy as my heart rate was high (156 bpm) during the first one and this could have distorted results.

worried
He is going for another
echocardiogram
on Friday followed by another appointment with consultant. In the meantime he has a permanent cough, and breathing difficulties which happens mostly at night. I’ve tried doctors, he was given antibiotics which helped a little.

Dilated aortic root at the level of sinuses??
I went for an
echocardiogram
recently and have since heard from my doctors saying that my gp would like to discuss the results with me. So curiosity got them best of me and I tracked down my test results but I’m struggling to understand it.

Feeling a little lost
Good morning After my son's 6 monthly check up in May last year his Dr requested from my GP to refer me for
echocardiogram
. After a lot of fuss I finally had it done at Royal Free Hospital in September. I had to chase them for the results because my son's next appointment was in November.

Mild aortic stenosis...is this normal?
Had an
echocardiogram
done September. Finally after trying to chase the a&e cardiologist who checked the
echocardiogram
he said my results were all normal. So I requested my results to check for myself as I feel rotten daily and it's says mild aortic stenosis/probably due to small lvot.

ILR Implantable loop Recorder
so they did an
Echocardiogram
which showed left ventricular obstruction, SAM in 3 chambers, Basel septal hypertrophy, and moderate Mitre regurgitation - which is all caused through high HR and AF.

Echocardiogram
Curiosity has got the better of me. A dangerous thing. I see that, in the USA, those who have had AVR seem to undergo an echo annually. Can anyone shed light on what we do here? And, coincidentally, I'm off for an echo in the morning but that was booked as part of my post op care by my local hospital

stress Echo results
- I was told categorically that I didn’t have a heart attack ‘The patient has had a stress
echocardiogram
recently. The resting scan shows basal inferior hypokinesia which would be in keeping with the circumflex territory. This doesn't change with incremental stress.
