A member asked:
I have issues with increasing shortness of breath over time. i have chest pains. my echo shows mild right atrium enlargement, dr.s office told me they dont think any thing else is needed following the interpretation of the echo. do you agree?

The progressive symptoms, as well as the finding of an enlarged right atrium merit a consult with a cardiologist to clarify symptoms and select treatment for the symptoms. Further testing should clarify the status of one's coronary arteries, blood pressure and pulmonary status and an aggressive diagnostic and therapeutic approach should improve one's symptoms and prognosis.

An evaluation from a pulmonary standpoint may help, imaging and pulmonary function tests specifically as to ruling in or out lung pathology in case your symptoms are not believed to be cardiac in nature.
