I’ve just come from doctor. He thinks that I have a cardiac myopathy. I know that I have the most common signs of this illness, but still I can not believe in that. I really worried because I know that there is no cure for it. Can cardiac myopathy be misdiagnosed?

I heard that many people are misdiagnosed of cardiac myopathy. They are put on heart drugs, when the real problem is in the lungs. Some are prescribed drugs to strengthen the heart, while their problem is that of a stiff heart. But you should know that shortness of breath does not necessarily mean heart is weak.
