Diastolic dysfunctio: Your entries fail to relax adequately when your fills up. The pump function may remain completely normal. Common in hypertension due to vehicular hypertrophy . Your cardiologist will assess you overall cardiac risk.

No: It is a type of heart failure, it is usually not serious if you do not have any symptoms. However, some people have severe short of breath even with just relaxation impairment.
