So I just wrapped up my full workup that I plan to do annually by my cardiologist. This included an EKG, echocardiogram, stress test and blood work, etc.
Everything came back good...except. The echo was of course the main test.
Cardiologist consults with me and states the following about the echo.
I have no issues with anything I'm seeing. You have great output, no enlargement of the heart anywhere, your valves look great, no defects. The only thing I noticed was an ever so slight enlargement of your right aorta. Nothing to worry about now, but perhaps something we should check again in 3-4 years.
My question is, anything I can do to correct this "ever so slight enlargement?" He didn't seem concerned, after all, I'm 50 years old, and I'm guessing most people's hearts will show some mileage in some capacity by age 50?
