BLOOD TEST: B.N.P.
Results were near 1,500, (sh0uld be about 100) which was taken again this
time reading is nearly the same.

I have dilated cardiomyopathy with 13% ejejtion.

Doctor looked concerned, which is out of charachter for him. He is a real
nice guy, but I never seen him look so rattled, ie:it is what he didn't say
that bothers me.

Anyone here that can enlighted me, it is appreciated

Thanks & God Bless

Elevated BNP is an indicator of heart failure.

If there is lung congestion (as determined by physical exam and/or
chest x-ray), then the diagnosis could be congestive heart failure.

Otherwise, low-output failure should be considered especially given
your history of a very low EF of 13%.

Would suggest you seek a referral to a cardiologist preferably one that
specializes in heart failure.

You are welcome.

Would redirect all thanks and praises to GOD, Whom I love with all my
being.

Many thanks to GOD for your kind heart.

Will be keeping you in my prayers, dear Raymond.

Prayerfully in Christ's amazing love,

Andrew
