I have been living with Cardiomyopathy since June 2006. I am taking beta
blockers and ace inhibitors and am being kept an eye on by a wonderful
cardiac specialist nurse. (The cardiologists are inundated with waiting
lists here in the UK and I'm still awaiting the appointment I should have had
last December!!) I would be interested to hear of anyone else's experiences,
either as a sufferer themselves or as a carer or loved one of a sufferer. I
think sharing common experiences - and worries - is every bit as therapeutic
as receiving medical treatment. WJC

Sad to hear about your difficulties in the UK.

There are different causes of cardiomyopathy. Experiences will
varying with the different causes.

May GOD bless you.

Prayerfully in Jesus' ever-lasting love,
