I am 33. Have history of hypertension. Now diagnosed with Moderately enlarged LV, Ectatic aorta 3.4cm. Explain? -

Moderately hypertrophied LV and Moderately enlarged LV wall thickness with Ectatic aorta 3.4 cm diameter. I exercise atleast 20 minutes a day. No chest pain or other symptoms...

Uncontrolled hypertension can cause a plethura of health problems; mainly heart problems, including enlargement of the heart. My advice would be to watch your diet, keep exercising, and stay on any blood pressure meds that you may be on. If you can t manage to keep your blood pressure down, you ll only develop more problems. Unfortunately, that s about all I know to tell you. If you want specific explanations to your test results, MAKE your doctor explain them to you. That s their JOB. You are a consumer and paying for his/her service, so don t hesitate to ask them to help you understand. Good luck to you:)
