Introduction
The prefix “cardio†means heart. The word “myopathy†means damaged muscle. Our heart is actually an organ made of muscle. Cardiomyopathy is actually an abnormality of the muscle of the heart.
Cardiomyopathy may occur for several reasons, including viral infections, heart attack, alcoholism, severe high blood pressure, heart structure abnormalities, and congenital heart defects. Nutritional deficiencies and certain medical conditions, such as lupus, celiac disease, and end-stage kidney disease can lead to cardiomyopathy.
A doctor can diagnose a cardiomyopathy after reviewing your medical history and conducting a physical examination and some tests. Your blood pressure will be checked, and your heart and lungs examined with a stethoscope. Blood tests may be performed to assess the condition of your heart.
Treatment for cardiomyopathy depends on the type and severity of your condition. Cardiomyopathy may be treated with dietary changes and medications. Individuals with a severely weakened heart may need a pacemaker or surgery to sustain life until a donor heart for transplantation is available.
