Cardiologist reveals surprising cause of heart failure: No, it’s not high blood pressure or clogged arteries
Cardiologist Dmitry Yaranov highlights amyloidosis as an underdiagnosed cause of heart failure, often mistaken for hypertension or aging. This condition involves misfolded proteins stiffening the heart, making it difficult to pump blood effectively. Symptoms mimic common heart issues, leading to years of misdiagnosis, yet early detection is vital for patient outcomes.
