Hi , I am acting as a relay for an italian
friend that doesn't speak english and is
looking for information around the world.
Local specialists are befuddled and so far
diagnosed "asymptomatic cardiac
enlargement". Global left ventricle
enlargement, significant reduction of the
cinesis (ipocynesis) of the left
ventricle, important reduction of the
systolic indexes, reduced diastolic
functionality
The patient is a 60 years old female with
an extremely stressing lifestyle, easily
pulling 12 hours a day of intellectual
work for the last 30+ years.
In 2003 she started suffering some very
occiasional episodes of tachycardy. She
was subjected to an ecodoppler test that
proved to be inconclusive. Doctors
expected leg swelling and breathlessness,
but the patient didn't show any of such
symptoms.
The patient was prescribed beta-blocking
drugs and cardioaspirin and so far show a
significant reduction of tachicardy (from
100 beats down to a max of 80 and a lower
average) and a reduction of asystolic
events, which almost disappeared.
She is looking for information about
causes, genetic or viral still not being
excluded, cures and procedures that could
be useful in finally understanding what is
causing her heart problems.
Thanks for your time
