Signs Of Cardiomyopathy

Abnormal Heartbeats

Having abnormal heartbeats or arrhythmia is when the heart beats unusually fast or slow for the corresponding level of exertion, or is out of rhythm. Having arrhythmia can make individuals feel discomfort, pain, a fluttering sensation, or pounding in their chest. Sometimes arrhythmia does not cause any discomfort at all, but it may feel strange. An arrhythmia isn't always caused by heart disease. Often it is caused by an electrolyte imbalance or too much caffeine or nicotine. If individuals experience abnormal heartbeats regularly, however, it could be a sign of cardiomyopathy. An enlarged heart not functioning at a normal capacity will sometimes struggle to beat at a regular rhythm.
