I have heart failure after having cancer treatment, and it took months to get my HF diagnosis because of delays in testing. My cancer was diagnosed on the two week pathway but what I have now is actually more serious (my cancer didn't spread), but took longer to be diagnosed.

I've name changed for this but I've been around for years.

My mum has severe heart failure, and had she been correctly diagnosed at the outset, she might not have ended up so ill.
She too was told it was asthma, or a chest infection, or flu....first admission to hospital she was on the cardiac unit for 10days in massive fluid overload.

Signed!

Dhs was written off as asthma, then anxiety 🤦🏻‍♀️.

A good gp would have joined the dots with his heart murmur, AF, family hx of heart problems, recurrent migraines, low sats & thought ooh maybe it’s a heart thing.

I have signed. As the carer of a HF patient I am behind you all the way.

I've cared for HF patients including end of life patients. It's so common yet there needs to be more awareness.

My DM died from dilated cardiomyopathy and I have inherited the same condition.
