i had a doctor appointment on yesterday to review my muga scan that i had taken to determine if i would need an icd. my ef has gone from 10% to 47%. i will not need the icd. i have no blockages. i am very happy with this, i was surprised. i knew i felt better but i thought i would be in the 30% range. this is from meds & no added salt to my food. even though i try to limit foods w/salt i have eaten some of them particularly bread. i am overjoyed & thrilled this is the power of our awesome God.
