Henda, are you going to get a second opinion?

Potential severe heart failure is nothing to play around with.

[ThisisOverload]

Didn't lift today.

But I hiked Wheeler Peak yesterday in about 6ish hours.

13k feet in elevation, hard to breath at times.

Already getting snow flurries in the morning.

I’m going to see consultant in months time mate I’m going to ask for another scan (or whatever it is they do to determine ejection fraction) as she was going off scans taken when I was really sick in hospital and ejection fraction was down at 35% and I couldn’t walk to the toilet or brush my teeth without getting breathless and dizzy and now I’m back to full function that I had before so don’t believe it’s as bad as she said mate

My dads ejection fraction was 9% and he had zero symptoms.

Now it’s back up to about 42%

Ah shit that’s ruined my theory of why I think I’m fine.  glad your dads condition improved mate

Do you do your cardio straight away after lifting?

[SF1900]

Henda, I am not a heart specialist like 99.9% of getbig, however, I assume that my dad is an anomaly.  I would assume most people with 9% EF have symptoms.

With that said, I wouldn't automatically assume that because you have no symptoms or that you feel well, that you're totally okay. Don't wait that long for a second opinion.

[SF1900]

Do you do your cardio straight away after lifting?

Hulkotron, yes, as soon as I am done with lifting and my hear rate still elevated, I go right on the cardio machine.

Today was stairmaster.

[Gym-Rat]

Thats great to hear man, glad he's doing better...

[AbrahamG]

Has Rory noticed any positive changes in your glutes since incorporating the stairmaster?

[SF1900]

Thats great to hear man, glad he's doing better...

Thanks!

He was diagnosed many years ago but is still doing well.

[SF1900]

Has Rory noticed any positive changes in your glutes since incorporating the stairmaster?

Actually, yes.

As I’m on the stair master, I contract my glutes and hamstrings for better results!

Agreed. Is not something to mess around w/ or take lightly. Many dont have any symptoms, then die suddenly.
Get an appt as soon as you can, get a nuclear stress test (and all the cardiac tests done).
My buddy never had a symptom. He was walking thru Loews, started to feel very tired/sick. Thought about going home to sleep it off.
If he did, he wouldnt have woken. Wife convinced to go to hospital. Rushed him in for bypass (widow-maker). Again, no symptoms felt great right up until that point...
He rehabbed for a year and just did (in AUG, and won) a deadlift contest at age 68, he's doing great now...

[IroNat]

No worries.

Getbiggers prefer to live like warriors and die at 30 than live like sheep till 80.

[Hulkotron]

Stairmaster is a solid workout
