I would say that it needs to be fixed and fast. ya need more than that to live long. WHen they put stents in mine they told us the whole one side was not working right but the arteries were to small to put stents in. Also the cut off a part of my heart where it had a scare or somthing and carterized it.

they can put in a pacemaker. THqat is my nect option they say. So hope I dont have to have that . THerapy for his heart will be good not a gym. I had to go thru the therapy and they worked with me on what I did and kept a monitor on me the whole time I was there. Ususally about an hour ever three day. Cook with oliveoil. But not to many fried foods.

I'M PRETTY SURE IT MEANS THE HEART MUSCLES ARE ONLY AT 30% IT COULD BE CAUSED BY A VIRUS OR ATTACK.I LOST A KIDNEY TO CANCER 4 YEARS AND MY OTHER ONE IS AT 35% BUT I'M STILL TICKING ALONG.I'VE LEARNED THAT WHEN WE OVER EAT WHAT DOSEN'T GET CLEANED OUT BY THE LIVER THE REST GOES TO THE KIDNEY AND SITS THERE UNTIL AFTER OVER WORKING YOUR TOXIN'S GET DISCHARGED WHICH IS NOT A GOOD THING,NEVER KNEW THAT UNTIL CANCER CAME NOT THAT I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE EATEN LESS IF I WAS STILL YOUNG AND THOUGHT I WOULD LIVE FOREVER.IF YOU SEARCH ( 30% of heart function ) there are sites that will explain why and reasons for that check a few out.

i get blood tests all the time so only your doctor can tell you,and if he isn't keeping an eye on it i'd find another doctor.

That does not sound good to me at all. It means that only thirty percent of the heart is actually working to keep a person alive.
