I have shortness of breath and chest pain with exercise or climbing stairs,
and sometimes swollen legs. I was told it was
diastolic heart failure. EF is normal to above normal. Left ventricle is stiff. Cath results are: pcwp: 23mm, pulmonary artery 45/23 mm, right atrium mean 17mm, right ventricle 45/17 mm, lvedp is 23mm. I don't know what these numbers mean. If you can tel from numbers, is my condition mild, moderate or severe? Taking diovan and toprol xl, diuretics, lipitor.
