A member asked:
Does normal chest x-ray rule out rightsided heartfailure? sob, chestpain, tachycardia, blue nails, pale, extreme fatigue, weak arms/legs, swollen.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not at all: A CXR is minimally helpful in the diagnosis of right sided HF. An echocardiogram is the test of choice along with a thorough history and physical examination.
