Default First visit since hospital with cardiologist

So I go tomorrow for my first visit with my Cardiologist tomorrow since I was diagnosed in January. I have been seeing the P.A.'s. I should find out when I will have my Echo. I haven't had one since I was first diagnosed so I am excited to see where my EF is at. I feel excellent most of the time so I am expecting improvment. I will let you all know the appointment goes!!

So I just got back from the cardiologist. Everything is good. He says that my heart sounds normal. He wants to just keep me on the meds that I am on instead of increasing my dosage. My BP was 100/60 and heart rate was 56bpm. He doesn't want to do another echo until early July. That is good with me because he made a awesome point. He thinks that if we did an echo and I was 100% that it may affect my recovery psychologically. I totally believe in that!! I feel great and all in all it was an awesome visit with him!
