malnutrition and heart disease

Please help!!!!!!!!! My daughter was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy three weeks ago.  She has lost 55# in the last 10
months, she was using a fentanyl patch and had become anorexic.  Her cardiologist mentioned cardiac cachexia, also.  Could the fentanyl patch have been the cause of her condition.  Please be honest

Hi pearl930,

Try posting your question on one of the Expert Forums (see right hand column for link).  Your question should be fine for the Heart Disease Forum or the Interventional Forum.  I hope you find the answers and that your daughter improves soon.
