Chest X-Ray

Went for the x-ray this morning & jz got back my results. Seems I have CARDIOMEGALY. What's that, I asked. Sigh.. Here's what I found online:

Enlarged heart (cardiomegaly) is not a disease but a sign of an underlying problem. It can have many causes, including:

• High blood pressure
• Heart valve disorders
• Weakness of the heart muscle (cardiomyopathy)
• Severe anemia
• Thyroid disorders
• Excessive iron in the body (hemochromatosis)
• Abnormal protein buildup in an organ (amyloidosis)

In some people, an enlarged heart causes no signs or symptoms. Others may experience:

• Breathing difficulties
• Shortness of breath
• Dizziness
• Abnormal heart rhythm (arrhythmia)
• Swelling (edema)

Treatment is directed at the underlying cause of enlarged heart.

Well, will wait & see what my doctors have to say about this lor.. Sigh!!!!!!
