Thank you for the detailed information that you provided. I am glad that you were able to receive your transplant and recover after the MI. I was concerned that the SVT was part of Hemodynamic circulation; and if so, that I may develop diastolic CHF. My cardiologist tells me that my ECHO is normal and no diastolic CHF. I had some exercise intolerance over the past 2-3 years when I jog and am very concerned. I worry that with progression of CHF that I will not qualify for a transplant. I am also confused by “compensated.” I had a biopsy that showed “vascular congestion.” I inquired if this means “portal hypertensive gastropathy.” It was dismissed and again stated “compensated.”

@hope25 maybe you should ask what exactly is meant by “compensated”. Then find out how that relates to cardiology. Last but not least what impact would it have on the status of potential liver transplant listing.
