A member asked:

My husband went for his yearly medical at his place of work. the dr said he has an enlarged heart.no medication was given. what must we do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See cardiologist: It is not clear on what basis he was told that he has enlarged heart. In any case, it would be prudent to consult a cardiologist to get a second opinion from an expert. Wish you and your husband good health!
