Echo one year ago with an ef of 35 to 45. echo yesterday with ef of 20%. there are no symptoms. no fatigue, exercise intolerance, shortness of breath, swelling. is it possible the echos ef is wrong? can someone have an ef of 20 have no symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's impossible to be asymptomatic with a ventricular ejection fraction of 20%. Most people already have symptoms such as dyspnea on exertion, generalized fatigue, etc. with EF of 35%. Please discuss with your cardiologist. Good luck.
