Hi all,
I just got copies of latest medical reports for my sister (From India. A few days ago I had posted about her pregnancy)
One of the things mentioned in there is that "these findings are consistent with progression to dilated cardiomyopathy" . Same report also mentions about concentric hypertrophy of the left ventricle. What does having these two conditions together mean? Isnt dilated CM worse than HCM?
Do you guys know of any associations connected with dilated CM?
I have a copy of her echo? How do I find out the thickness of her heart wall? What should I be looking for? Is it called Interventricular Septum? It says 0.46? What does that mean?
Please help
