My ejection fraction is only 30%

I am suffering from ejection fraction  of my heart detected my echo cardiograph is only 30% past 3 years. I am 73 years male from South India.I am diabetic. Non hypertensive. I take the following medication regularly past 3 years.

1.Deplotol 75mg       0-1-0
2.Cytogrd od 75mg   1-1-0
3.Lonazep  0.25        0-0-1 5days a week
4.Modlipez                0-0-1
5.Evion 400               1.1.1
6.Ativan                     0-0-2
7Prothiadeon 25mg    0-0- 1
8 Eltroxin 100 mg       0-0-1

Three months back there was collection of fluid in my left lung.  It was drained. Even after draining immediately fluid collected in my same(left)lung again and it was drained only after admitting as in patient. I took ECG four months ago but I am not able to read it now because it has been erased..  All the cordialogist say that I should continue the same medicine. I am upset.  Is there any surgical approach for increasing the EF to normality.  Perhaps I may not locate your reply in this site.
For heaven sake could you please email details to  ***@****. Thanking you in advance for your kindness. Wish you Merry Christmas and happy New year.

Hi,
The best way to improve the EF of the heart is by heart transplantation only and the next best option is medical treatment only. There’s no other surgical approach to improve the EF. Hence, I’ll suggest you to consult a cardiologist and maybe you need some more medications/increasing the dose of present medications to improve your EF. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.
