Congestive Heart Failure

Congestive heart failure is another type of heart disease. It is, simply put, when a persons heart fails. It is the most common reason for the elderly to be hospitalized. Congestive heart failure often is a result of another type of heart condition.

It occurs when the heart is not able to pump out enough blood from its chambers to meet the body's needs. Congestive heart failure can also occur when a persons heart chambers become stiff, which doesn't allow the heart to relax and thus fill with blood.

There are several symptoms to congestive heart failure. The symptoms are determined by which side of the heart may be failing. Often, the symptoms of congestive heart failure are from the congestion that occurs when fluid backs up into the lungs and pushes into the surrounding tissues.

Symptoms of heart failure on the left side of the heart may be as follows: tiredness, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing; especially when sleeping, wheezing, and weight loss. Symptoms of heart failure on the right side of the heart may result in the following: tiredness, fluid in the feet, legs and abdomen, enlargement of the liver, and weight gain that is unintentional due to water retention. A doctor should be contacted immediately when a person has any of the above symptoms.

Isn’t it normal that we think that we are not having any problem? I was in the similar misconception when I came to know that I was having an abnormal ECG, on the health checkup day on my school campus. It was an exaggerating surprise for me. I was really shocked to know that I was facing some problem of heart. I immediately got my advanced test done from the nearby diagnostic centre. But doctors didn’t find anything unusual. I wasn’t sure he was really a doctor or just a person who knows to take some test and show us the result. I was at all not satisfied with what doctor there informed me. I thought of getting done my advanced diagnostic test where specialists of this field would have my diagnosis. I then got all advance diagnostic test in EliteHealth Medical practice in Miami. There they were able to find that I was having a deformation in tricuspid valve. It was from birth and was getting deformed increasingly. Then, all the tests were carried out there, got treated as soon as possible, and right now I am leading a very comfortable life than ever before. You can find some important information regarding the advanced diagnosis check up from http://www.elitehealth.com/advanced_diagnostic_testing.php. So this experience led me to a conclusion that one should never leave a chance to anyone who is not proficient in their field. It was better that I got everything one at the right time, otherwise, it would have been too late to know.

Hello everyone!! I'm Marilyn Here in the States and I'm here to talk about what Dr. James did for me. I have been suffering from (GENITAL HERPES VIRUS) disease for the past 4 years and had constant pain and itching, especially in my private part. During the first year. This disease started circulating all over my body and  I have used Oregano oil, Coconut oil, Acyclovir, Val acyclovir, Acyclovir, and some other products and it really helped during my outbreaks but I totally got cured! From my HSV with a strong and active herbal medicine ordered from  Dr. James herbal mix and it completely fought the virus from my nervous system, and I was tested negative after 15 days of using  Dr. James herbal mix medicine. I'm here to let you all know that the herpes virus has a complete cure, I got rid of mine with the help of Dr. James herbal medicine.  I came across a testimony of Tasha, on the internet testifying about Dr. James, on how he cured Her of 7 years HSV 2. And she also gave the email address of  the great Dr. James  (drjamesherbalmix@gmail.com...]..., advising anybody to contact him for help on any kind of diseases that he would be of help with, so I emailed him telling him about me (HSV 2) he told me not to worry that I'm going to be cured!! Well, I never doubted him. I have faith he can cure me too, Dr. James prepared and sent me his herbal mix medicine made of roots and herbs which I took. In the first one week, I started experiencing changes all over me, after 15 days I drank his herbal mix medicine, I was totally cured. No more inching, pain on me anymore as Dr. James assured me. After some time I went to my doctor to do another test. The result came out negative.
