- Your heart is a muscle and just like any other muscle in your body, if it’s working harder it becomes more muscular. Your heart muscle responds to high blood pressure by thickening and getting bigger. In this video I will discuss this process of left ventricular hypertrophy and what it means for your heart.

Cardioogist diagnosed LVH. Was treated for HBP for 3 years and getting worse fatigue and dizziness. Finally went for a second opinion and learned I have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Since birth. Am now treated correctly and improvement in exercise tolerance, no shortness of breath. Still fatigued but that is because side effects of Camzyos.
This is an exceptional and informative video. I was diagnosed with LVH yesterday. I am 49 and both of my parents passed away from heart illness in their 50's. I asked to see a cardiologist as a precaution. I can't state enough how important it is to listen to what your body is telling you. My GP said my shortness of breath and tiredness was age plus anxiety. I pushed and pushed to see a specialist and I am so glad I did. Now onto treatment!
Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your story. I'm pleased to hear your perseverance resulted in seeing a specialist to discuss treatment options. I hope the treatment helps to manage your symptoms.
How did u get lvh.?, mine reason was htn.....in ur case genetics.. l guess
@@thefilmculturehindithis condition is mainly because of high bp ... you need to modify your life style
@@johnny123-v6q yes....I agree
Me too I was just diagnose with this last week 😢💔
No need to worry .. common problem like fatty liver
Thanks for this, Doctor. Reminds me to go to the gym
I went from 89kg to 68kg. I did this in 12 months. Will it go away?
My husband passed away suddenly from Acute left Ventricular failure and Biventricular cardiac hypertrophy.
He had high blood pressure and was on a tablet for it..
So beforehand the. Doctor has said he's doing well clearly not he was only 52
I’ve been diagnosed with LVH. The pain I get sometimes when I walk up flight of stairs and get to the top, I feel like my heart is trying to pump blood through a narrow artery fast and it’s very painful.
It usually goes away within several seconds, once my heart slows down.
Doctor I was diagnosed Concentric left ventricular hypertrophy with adequate contractility and normal wall motion? What does it mean po?Is it harmful or not?
Does low blood volume affects the diastolic function in Left ventricle? Or the left ventricle alter its diastolic function according to the volume of blood?
I have this but I have low blood pressure and a low resting heart rate. I passed heart stress tests. Do i have "athlete's heart"? I have been lifting heavy weights for near ten years now.
Presence of Left ventricle diastolic disfunction but No hypertrophy, No restrictions, No enlarged heart, No thickned walls nor thin walls, No blockages, No EF under 50% but had a chronic heavy menstural bleeding lasting 21 days a month and has a habbit of screen apnea.
Will the Diastolic Disfunction be cured or reversed If this habbit of holding breath is controlled?
I’m really scared. I have chronic resistant hypertension and now have left ventricular heart.
I hope everything is going well ❤
I’m 19 I did an ecg and it came back saying I have sinus bradycardia with Lvh I haven’t Horner with heart problems either is that possible for my age ?😞
No problem modify your lifestyle ... dont take stress sleep for 8 hours
What is the remedy if left ventricular hypertrophy happened??
It depends on the underlying cause, to ensure appropriate treatment is given.
More fluency
left ventricular hypertrophy is basically a death sentence, just a matter of time before it stops ticking, Notice how he never mentions the percentage of cases that are corrected or improved, Of course life style choices make a big difference, but once you have this condition does it really make a difference ? the meds they give you may help for some time but in the long run they don't even know how long you have, doctors don't want to tell you that your fucked. i was just diagnosed with this..
seriously man :( I tried to find the percentage of risk of dying, it's like 50% for the next 5 years. I'm fucked!
@@lanaya6261 All we can do is live the best life we can and hope that by making better lifestyle choices we get more time..
If it is due to htn....then better start with arb drugs like telmisartan etc...get echo every year...I m taking telma 40 from 1 year....I will update my recent state after echo
