Can someone live with 10 percent heart function
My Mother had an 11% EF and died (sudden cardiac death) on the DANCE FLOOR! Enjoy life!!!!
Mine was 15 about 3 years ago. Don't know what it is now, but I think you can live with 10, but not fun!
yes my heart is only functioning at 10%. I'm not the person i was but I"m still with the living. I had to learn to do things differently and accept the things i can no longer do. Take every thing slow and easy.
I don't think it went up, but I'm not sure. The last time it was checked was the day after my ICD fired 6times in 15 minutes. It had been at twenty. It may have gone back up but I can't tell. I take a lot of meds and the side effects are getting worse so i don't know what is my heart and what is the meds!
Mine was at 13% when they did my mitral valve replacement. I am now at 38%, 6 years later. The difference is that at 13 you really don't remember stuff at all and you are basically just barely getting along. I cannot even imagine being lower than that! Prayers love and hugs sent.
