Heart Failure Support Group
Heart failure is a condition that can result from any structural or functional cardiac disorder that impairs the ability of the heart to fill with or pump a sufficient amount of blood throughout the body. It is often undiagnosed due to a lack of a universally agreed definition and difficulties in diagnosis, particularly when the condition is considered "mild."
Well my pulmonary doctor just called me .Now I have COPD and CHF.He said I have a moderate obstruction and that means more meds.I am getting afraid to go to the Doctor they just keep finding more things wrong with me.HE wants me to go for another sleep study on Wednesday night,oh well I will just think of it as a night out of town.Getting tired of all the test at least this one does not involve needles.
I would strongly recommend you get your bone density and vitamin D levels checked as well. There is a very high correlation between chf and vitamin D deficiency.
Hang in there you can over come all of these challenges.
