There are various types of heart diseases. cardiomyopathy is one of the most complex and serious disease of them. It affects the heart muscles, progressing gradually and is often unnoticed. There are several types, but the three most common are:
1. Dilated Cardiomyopathy – The most common type, where the left ventricle enlarges and loses its ability to pump blood efficiently, typically seen in middle-aged men.
2. Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy – In this condition, the muscles of the left ventricle thicken abnormally, reducing its pumping capacity. It can occur at any age but is more common in children.
3. Restrictive Cardiomyopathy – The rarest type, where the heart muscles become rigid, preventing the heart from pumping properly, often seen in older adults.
Causes of Cardiomyopathy:
1. Heredity
2. Rapid heart rate
3. Prolonged high blood pressure
4. Valvular diseases

Doctors may recommend the following tests to diagnose Cardiomyopathy:
1. Chest X-ray (to check if the heart is enlarged)
2. Echocardiogram (to assess heart and valve function)
3. Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) (if echocardiography is insufficient)
4. Electrocardiogram (ECG) (to check for infarcts and irregular heartbeats)
5. Treadmill stress test (to evaluate symptoms triggered by exercise)
6. Cardiac catheterization (to assess whether the heart is pumping blood properly)
7. Computed Tomography (CT) scan (to evaluate the heart’s size and function)
8. Blood tests (to check blood sugar levels, Lipid profile, thyroid profile, liver functions and kidney functions).
