Can you provide any details regarding your DCM diagnosis, cause-even if only suspected- and treatment protocol?
Have all viral, bacterial, fungal, mycoplasma and parasitic related infective agents, been ruled out?
What about inflammation of heart muscle from immune system disorders, such as lupus? Lupus is somewhat consistent with the kidney involvement
and flare ups.
Has your thyroid function been tested? Have you had Free T3, Free T4 and Reverse T3 thyroid function tests?
There's strong evidence to suggest a Lupus- Hypothyroid connection.
Looking forward to your reply.
Best wishes,
Niko
