Something called heart failure

@jc76 No one from the doctors gave me an answer to my question. All I know is that I have an enlarged heart with heart failure. I even knew about this through the results of the tests online. I was in the hospital for twenty days, after which they told me that I can now leave the hospital. I cannot work, nor walk much, nor can I even drive, with 5 types of medications. This is all that I know about my condition that I remember until now when the doctor told me that my heart will stop at any moment.

@majeedmerzah
Are you in the U.S.?
I cannot believe this would happen anywhere in the U.S. I would hope no where on earth this would happen but I don't know the other countries.

What brought you to hospital?

From what I learned form my experience with this is I had a virus get into my heart and cause some scarring. It messed up my electrical system. The BP went up and my heart got larger trying to work harder.

If they told you your heart could stop at anytime from my experience of me getting a ICD/Pacemaker and why I got it you should have had a ICD put in. That would shock your heart back into rypthm. I am not sure of your medical history or even enough information here, but nor should I, but sounds like you could need a pacemaker also.

If you live in another country I really can't advise but if you live in U.S. find an experienced cardiologist and even better a heart failure specialist.
