Welcome to our community. I am sorry to hear about your recent diagnosis of high blood pressure and heart failure. We aren't doctors so unfortunately we can't give medical advice, but I would ask my old cardiologist this question. Or message your new cardiologist and see if they can give you an earlier appointment. You can also talk to your primary care physician about the high blood pressure so you can get that under control. I hope this helps.
