Ijust had new physical stress test done and I scored extremely fit,good scores! I also had a new Echo cardio done and it showed my EF has improved from 20% to 35%. This has helped me alot mentally, it has given alot of hope for the future. I have only been diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy for two and half months. I am also expecting my first child in the end of Sept.,a boy. I just thought that I would share something possitive with everyone! I hope that all of my future post are all good ones. Follow your meds,exercise,change your diet (low sodium),don't smoke and drink in moderation (quit).

Congrats on the new test results and on the impending birth of your son. You give me great hope, as I had an ef of 20% last may, and just had a MUGA scan but no results yet. I hope I do as well as you did. Keep up the good job in getting better.
