I am 37 andI was diagnosed a year ago with ARVD (Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia.) I had a defibrillator implanted, however, I recently reviewed my MRI report of the Heart and the right ventricular ejection fraction is 31% and my left is 45%.  I was just wondering if this is a fairly poor ejection rate considering my age, and the fact that I am fairly healthy otherwise.  I don't know much about this disease other than it is hereditary and progressive in nature to the point that one could end up with a heart transplant.  In addition to the ejection fraction question, I was wondering if you might have some literature or know where I can obtain some leterature on this disease so I can educate myself further. Thank you in advance for your input.
