HOMOEOPATHIC REMEDIES FOR DILATED CARDIOMYOPATHY
Dilated cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart
muscle, usually starting in your heart's main pumping chamber (left ventricle).
The ventricle stretches and thins (dilates) and can't pump blood as well as a
healthy heart can. The term "cardiomyopathy" is a general term that
refers to the abnormality of the heart muscle itself.
Dilated cardiomyopathy might not cause symptoms, but
for some people it can be life-threatening. A common cause of heart failure —
the heart's inability to supply the body with enough blood — dilated
cardiomyopathy can also contribute to irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias), blood
clots or sudden death.
The condition affects people of all ages, including
infants and children, but is most common in men ages 20 to 60.
Causes--The
cause of dilated cardiomyopathy often can't be determined (idiopathic). However,
numerous factors can cause the left ventricle to dilate and weaken, including:Genetics,Congenital
heart defects, Infections, including those caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi
and parasites, Drug and alcohol abuse, Certain cancer medications, Exposure to toxins,
such as lead, mercury and cobalt, Coronary artery disease or heart attack, High
blood pressure (hypertension), Diabetes,Complications of late-stage pregnancy
Symptoms
--If you have dilated cardiomyopathy, you're likely to have signs and symptoms
of heart failure or arrhythmias caused by your condition. Signs and symptoms
include:-Fatigue, Shortness of breath (dyspnea) when you're active or lying
down, Reduced ability to exercise, Swelling (edema) in your legs, ankles and
feet, Swelling of your abdomen (ascites)
