Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Welcome to Ask a Doctor service!
Regarding your concern, I would explain that there are different patterns of enlarged heart. Even an athletic heart may appear enlarged in a chest X ray study, but it not pathological.
For this reason, it is important to evaluate properly the heart function by performing a cardiac ultrasound.
I would be glad to review your cardiac ultrasound report in order to be able to give a more professional opinion.
I would also like to know more about your complaints:
- Do you have shortness of breath during physical exertion?
- Are you a sport person?
- Do you suffer from any other medical disorders : like chronic lung disease, arterial hypertension, diabetes, etc.?
I remain at your disposal for any further questions whenever you need!
Kind regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist

Hello again!
Thank you for the additional information!
I would like to know if you have already performed a cardiac ultrasound.
Could you please upload it for me to review?
In case you have not performed it yet, I recommend discussing with your doctor on performing this test, which is an accurate test to examine the heart function and structure.
As long as you don't have any complaints, there is no reason to panic!
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Please let me know about everything!
Wishing good health,
Dr.Iliri
