Enlarged heart

by dwightsunny, Oct 26, 2007 11:48AM
I have an enlarged heart (very enlarged).  I have heard of a treatment at the Cleveland clinic that can reduce the size of my heart.  I am on medicare, QMB and wellcare.  I do not know if any of these will cover the cost of getting my heart fixed.  I use to be a very active person (ie, sports, hunting, fishing, hiking) and can no longer do these things.  Is there any way through some program that I could qualify for surgery so I can be fixed to regain all or a partial of my life again.  What is usually the prognosis and treatment.  Please return an answer to me, as I will be looking for an answer from you.  My sincerest thanks.  

Dwight

May God Bless You.
