Can LVH be reversed? 

having had LVH due to an adrenal tumour and shocking blood pressure for best part of 3-4 years with 3 heart meds of varying types concurrently, once tumour removed and changed diet to low carb with intermittent fasting and exercise, lost excess weight and was able to stop all heart meds. The two subsequent heart scans shown no sign of LVH - so it can be done, have hope and listen to this excellent Dr. Thanks for all you do Dr. Gupta

Thank you for this thorough but calming and reassuring video. Your great work and effort is truly appreciated.

It's good to see you again and your new video. Just let me say I really appreciate you taking the time to do these videos. Your a awesome Dr. And Teacher as well. I understand you probably have a very busy life but your videos mean a lot to alot of your follow'ers me included. We need more Doctors like you!!!!!! You and your family stay safe and well ♥️ kindest regards Teri😊

AWESOME you have put up the best explanation on LVH anywhere.

Great to have you back! Your talks are more important than you might think. I, being a physician, always admit that there's so much to learn from you. Can't wait for the house tour!

Another thing...all I can say to you is God bless and I hope when I meet with my new cardiologist he will be able to explain all these things to me also!! Thanks again for your videos...so helpful !!🙏

You helped me tremendously with these two videos on LVH.. Thank you.

You do a wonderful job of explaining and teaching!

Thank you for being such a selfless doctor. I have been diagnosed with LVH and 53 years of age. I have a stress test scheduled, will be doing a sleep study to check for sleep apnea. I am optimistic and know that right now I am in the best position I can be. Diagnosed and being treated. I love life! Be well Dr! Be well Al viewers and family.

You're a Godsend. Thank you for this🌚

Delighted to hear the good news here. Thank you!

Absolutely brilliant, doctor. The complex made simple! I had an ecg today under peculiar circumstances. There was prolonged QT and T wave combo in conjunction with very high blood pressure. 180/118. They thus escorted me to AE nearby, had a blood test twice for topronin, which was found non-present. No arhythmia. Electrolytes good. Threshold rbc anaemia, probably copd related. I have stage 3 copd, greatly degraded over the past 12 months. I got a copy of the ecg, which I couldn't understand, obviously, but which I investigated on the NET, giving me a decent layman's understanding. Your talk put it all together for me, very clearly. They gave me an appointment at a cardiac clinic. I'm now up to speed, thank you so much. Keep up the good work, enjoy! 😊

Thank you so much for this video. It really gives me hope! Also, it helps me to understand what I should be discussing with my cardiologist.

Glad you're back Doc and congratulations on the new place?

What an excellent understanding of this problem, you’ve done an excellent job conveying it... 👏👏👏

Thank you for giving a new heart patient hope. The doom and gloom is all I hear most of the time. It's so useful to have the facts and the sense of hope for the ability to reverse some of the damage I have. My only symptom of this problem was shortness of breath after eating. My doctor picked up on the problem and confirmed the diagnosis with an EKG in the office. Now onto a cardiologist for the Echo and possible stress test. My blood pressure has started to rise over my normal 115/75 in recent months. And I do snore so sleep apnea is a possibility. Hoping it's not too late to make significant, beneficial changes in my heart condition. Thanks again!

you need an award for the amount of times you said left ventricular hypertrophy towards the end. great video.

You're such a wonderful and encouraging person!!! ❤️ Thank you!!

Thank you for the chat. Your video was quite eye-opening. I will follow up with my physician for further information and care.

This was so informative! Thank you for this and your channel.

I had tears when you said "It can be reversed" Thank you, as not all doctors are the same.

Brilliant video Doctor !! Thanks so much 🙏

Thank you this very easy to understand explanation. I've been dealing with hbp for too many years. Only in the last 6 months have I found a Dr that is familiar with the disease and asked all the questions related to a possible cause you presented in this video. I better understand his treatment and tests. I'll be back to keep informed. Thanks again.

Only found this today, very informative and positive. Thank you and I hope you are able to continue with more in the future 💙💛💚

This video has giving me hope and put my mind as ease. Thank you so much Doctor

Loved your explanation and am looking forward to more.

May God bless you, Dr. Sanjay!!! Very, very promising explanation. I love listening to you!!💚💚💚

Just found your channel this morning; first video watched, "Left Ventricular Hypertrophy", streamed in April of 2016. Great overall intro btw; dumbed down just right, at least for me. The second video of yours that I watched, this one. With just a little over 4 1/2 years time having elapsed, you're not looking the worse for wear. Appreciate your channel and its value to viewers like me. Thumbs-Up, Subscribe; consider it done.

Thanks for such great information!!

Thank you so much for this wonderful video.

Excellent video. Thank you

Thanks for sharing your wonderful knowledge with me.

No doctor told me this could be reversed. Thought best was I could keep it from progressing further. Thanks so very much

thanks so much. please keep posting new videos. greetings from srilanka

You give a hope to cure my symptoms Thank you.

Amazing video! Thank you

You’re awesome doctor. Thank you !

Thank you so much for this explaination.

Your advice is so basic, mainly common sense but not easy with so many temptations in life. Things to do and things to refrain from doing. Much of our problems we bring on ourselves. If only we had listened to you! If only you were our doctor!

Wonderful explanation. My EKG showed LVH and I’m so glad I found this tonight so I have a little more understanding. Very well done sir 🙌🏻

Great video. Thanks Doc.

Excellent video...thank you!

Thanks for wonderful explanation for VLH,god bless!

Thank you Dr. Gupta. You are doing a wonderful work for so many anxious patients like me. God bless you. It is very informative. Saw your videos only today and I have subscribed already 🙂. I want to ask you one question please. Does mildly thickened mitral valve sure to progress or it sometimes stays the same. I have trivial MVP( sometimes the report says mild and sometimes trivial) and mild (in some reports trivial) MR. I remember having a sore throat for a long time when I was a kid. And it went away. I'm 35 now. I was told to take penicillin 6 every 21 days which I did for three plus years and stopped. I have chest pains and shallow breathing to which my cardio said my heart won't cause me such symptoms. So I went to a gastrologist and was diagnosed with gerd. Symptoms gets little better during and after medication but it starts again. I want to get my regular echo done but I have to travel to another state to get it done since there are no cardio in our state as of now. I will be very happy if u reply. I wish I can mail you my echo reports. Thank you.

Very informative and helpful !!!

Very interesting, I need to get a scan to see if I have LVH. I'm surprised my Dr didn't organize one, as I have uncontrolled BP.

Thank you for your information ❤️

Hi Sanjay ,thanks for your great vids.Do you think clogged arteries can be reversed naturally?

Great video 👍

I love your videos! You have such a gift for explaining very complex heart issues. Could you please do a video on tricuspid regurgitation. I have been diagnosed with this condition, which is classified as moderate.

It is the best vedeo about LVH.. Love from India (kolkata)

True harbinger of all goodness and wellbeing to mankind. May God bless u .

Thanks for another great video Dr. Gupta! So a family member (47/M) recently received his Transthoracic Echo Report results (tested due to Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation) test notes included : 'Mildly dilated left atrium' 'Trace mitral regurgitation in the Mitral valve' 'Trace pulmonary regurgitation in the Pulmonic valve' My question is, are these regurgitations preventable / correctable / a major concern? And dialated atrium....does that mean an enlarged heart? Sounds scary Kind regards and stay safe and healthy

Good morning doc I have been diagnosed LVH and my doctor prescribe high blood pressure and cholesterol control tab for 60 days . Thanks for giving clear idea about LVH

Excellent video.

Great service sir

you are brilliant!,many thanks.

Beautiful explanation Sir, THANK YOU SO MUCH❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

thank you for the information

Thanks Sanjay, I will correspond with you on this...👍

Thanks for excellent video. Can you provide references for the research papers you mentioned? Thanks.

Amazing amount of helpful information in your video. TU! I am 70 & I have HTN & mild LVH and am on daily 20 mg Lisinopril. I am 5’6” and now weigh 150 after losing 10# this summer on Keto & intermittant fasting. We walk 4-5 miles/day. Any thoughts?

Thanks for this video

Could you please do a video on HOCM and the best treatment for this combined with high blood pressure. Thank you. I appreciate all your videos ❤

For a minute I was so scared until he gave hope ! Thanks Doc

Now found your video Dr. Thanks a lot

Thank you so much Dr Gupta ❤

GREAT GREAT DOCTOR !!!!

Thanks doc… good information

Been enjoying your videos! I like how you explain things - very logically, very methodically. Is LVH the same as, or does it cause congestive heart failure? Is there a relation between the two? Please keep the videos coming! Thank you!

Excellent. Thank you.

Left ventricular hypertrophy is more common in people who have uncontrolled high blood pressure. But no matter what your blood pressure is, developing left ventricular hypertrophy puts you at higher risk of a heart attack and stroke👏

I have LVH from having a bicuspid aortic valve and severe aortic stenosis. I'm having surgery this coming Monday to replace the aortic valve. This video has been useful for me, thanks.

Thank you!💗

Thank you for all that you do.

Off topic but do you believe in CAC calcium score? I heard you could have a 0 but still have a blockage due to soft plaque? I had a O but still get chest pains?

Love these videos. I have this condition and take candesartan and gone plant based no salt and my condition is improving so have hope people

Aoa, Excellent doc. God bless you!

Thank God. I was just diagnosed with this..71 years old..and very worried. I appreciate you going over this problem. I'm going to be careful...eat healthy and easy physical exercises daily. My BP goes down rapidly when I have physical exercise and then I drink salt water for the low BP but now I'm thinking I better not do that!! Dont want the BP to go up too high. Any suggestions? I see my cardiologist in 2 weeks. Thank you!!

sir, nice video. Kindly tell if Olkem 20 can help in reducing LVH? Also, what other better medicines for high blood pressure are there?

The heart's left ventricle can also enlarge in endurance athlete's due to the adaptation of constant prolonged cardio conditioning. So why is that thought to be benign?

Hi Sanjay! I really enjoy your videos and advice. Have you had the chance to speak to @medlifecrisis? Both of you are cardiologist in the UK and I would love to hear your agreements/disagreements on the heart effect of covid (as far as we know it)

Great video. Thanks for sharing. Would you speak about hydrochlorothiazide med for stiff heart. Does it help to reverse it.

Thank you so much 👏 at last we’ heard good news

Well Done!

Congrats on the new house.

Dear Doctor, You explained excellently the topic of left ventricular hypertrophy, thank you so much. I haven't been clear why angiotensin inhibitors are preferable in treating this condition?

Can you make a video about isolated systolic hypertension? My mother’s BP has been like 152/70 on several occasions. The diastolic has always been in the 70s.

I was diagnosed with LVH today. EF is 70% which is good. Will get medication for blood pressure. Anyone who thinks he/she has it, PLEASE get treatment ASAP.

Thanks doc 👍

Thank you so much for explaining this. My wife just got diagnosed with LVH and we are concerned.. .
