What is your Ejection Fraction (EF)?  I believe anything over 50% is considered good.  How was it measured?  I now an echocardiogram is an effective measurement tool.

I believe EF is related mostly to valve efficiency, and is not subject to Lipitor-type or heart medications, including anticoagulants.

That's my "take", and set of questions.  Let's see what else the community can offier, I will try to follow along.
