Hi
I was hospitalized last week for low blood O2 and fever. The doctor said it is probably Asthma. While in hospital They did an echo cardiagram, the results I got yesterday in the doctors offoice. He said everything is normal except that my heart is borderline enlarged. He did not seem overly concerned or refer me to a cardiolgist. My blood pressure is normal and I am 32 years. I have been excercising regularly.
Should I be concerned and do more tests. Can my heart get even more bigger with time and is there any treatmet/checkup to prevent sudden heart attacks from enlarged heart
Thanks
