HF because of COPD

I was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy in 2013 after my chest consultant sent me for a heart scan due to my copd. I have a lovely heart nurse who I see a couple of times a year and she tells me my condition has slightly improved over the years. I think this condition occurred due to the copd which I'm now really struggling with.

  1. CommunityMemberd88f42 Thank you for sharing. So right now your COPD is worse then your heart failure? Actually, we have a Moderator who is a respiratory therapist and has written several articles on heart failure and COPD. See below. I hope this helps😀 Is there anything specifically about heart failure and COPD that you would be interested in learning more about? Morgan (heart-failure.net Moderator)
