Thickened heart: LVH stands for left ventricular hypertrophy. The LV is thicker than normal. Most common reason is high blood pressure. There r other possible reasons ie diabetes, heart valve problems, genetic heart disease. The hyperdynamic term means the contraction is more vigorous than normal owing to the thickness. I suggest a consultation with a cardiologist for further eval/treatment
