Thanks for the query
There are two types of enlarged heart, restrictive and dilated cardiomyopathy. Both of which does not have a very good prognosis, however with treatment life span becomes more. If you had told me the ECHO report i could have given you numbers
PLease stop smking weed. U might have got an enlarged heart due to drug abuse
have a healthy living
