Hey guys,
i just came back from a specialist in the cardiology segment and would like to hear your opinion on the results/opinion of the cardiologist.
I got the letter in german, i try to translate as much as i can.
ECG results:
blood pressure = 110/70, heart rate 54, no abnormalities ("perfect" in here words)
ECHO:
Aorta (AO) = 35mm, LA (left chamber(?)) = 37mm, LVDD (left ventricle diastolic diameter(?)) = 64mm, LVSD (systolic(?)) = 49mm, IVS (?) = 9mm,
heart wall (HW) = 9mm , EF = 46%, TAPSE = 22mm
EF biplan = 41% (?)
"left ventricle enlarged with slight global restric. of function @ diffuse hypokinesis mainly @ septum and posterior. right ventricle basal dilatated with normal function. aortic valve echo increases(??) with normal opening amplitude. other heart chambers and valves unobstruve. grade I mitral insufficiency. Slight Arota- and tricuspid regurgitation. No indication of increasement in pressure of small circulatory.
opinion/assessement:
- grade I restriction of LV function @ diffuse hypokinesis and enlarged left ventricle. Most likely/could be beginning of a dilatative cardiomyopathy. (due to family history).
- therapy with candesartan (16mg/daily) should be continued, no further medicamentation required.
- i can continue with every sports i do right now but i should keep cardio up.
She told me not to worry
next steps which she would like to do with me:
- 24 hours ecg, done as soon as possible
- cardio-MRT with Adenosin-infusion and contrast infustion to get more detailed information. (already scheduled @ 15.02.18 in a hospital)
what made her wonder:
according to her, the echo results and the ecg results do not fit together.
She said she is surprised that my ECG was perfect because she suspected to see at least some abnormalities @ ecg.
so guys, what is your opinion on that?
i am sorry if some words are not correct, just try your best, haha
thanks alot for your help
