The heart can repair itself. it is slow. and can be done, I have found many natural
remedies to help the symptoms. I have been working
hard for three years at optimizing my health. Limit
salt #1, limit alcohol, tobacco!! limit caffeine,
Chocolate has much caffeine, has to go.. Eat fresh
foods ,,no caned processed foods at all,, the
additives for shelf life color etc. hurt the body,
Store bought bread is bad .. full of salt. I only eat
home made wheat bread. Now for speed I make whole
wheat dutch baby's. 1 cup wheat flour 1 egg 1 cup milk
.. I fry it in grape-seed oil on medium heat.. mix in
rice bran protein, or add home made salsa to the
batter ,, or anything else it can take garlic or any
spices. or pancake style.

I oil my skin, entire body, with grape seed oil every
other day. its magical I'm loosing years worth of
wrinkles and it helps your body save the good fats for
your heart and tissues. you wont crave fattening foods
anymore when you start oiling your skin,, amazing!!!
Feet also.

Eat lots of good fats so you dont crave bad fats...
you need fat,,, eat the good stuff!!!

I go anti cancer also with my heart smart diet,, by
adding celery, limes the #1 cancer fighter limes also
grapefruit. pomegranate, fresh fruits. wild berries.

I'll mension Rice bran protein one more time it will
pull your old heart back together again go get some,,
body builder protein powders are ok too. but watch the
additives, salt, and caffien they add for the energy
boost , read the labels..

Oral health, very important for heart health. Floss
daily with tea tree oil. get a reach full sized handle
flosser they work great. two drops of tea tree oil in
your mouth for lowers then two more drops for upper.
then use a sonic care electric tooth brush twice a
day. using toms of main Cinnamon toothpaste every
other time mixed with tea tree oil brushing three
drops every other time,,

And drink four drops of tea tree oil every day .. I
just swallow it,, or make the tea like they
recommend... tea tree oil is an amazing anti biotic.
the germs in your teeth go straight to your heart...
kill them!!!

Mental health, huge component. Its all we really have.
every day I make myself appreciate what I do have,
and I think more and more positive every day. I'm
amazed that I can be totally happy with constant chest
pain , I isolate my pain as a technical issue, and
leave a certain part of my brain for dealing with the
pain and focusing on not over doing, but the rest of
my brain I focus on pleasurable things thoughts, when
I feel sorry for myself I say "oops not going to do
that". and I stop thinking the negative thoughts,,
they dont help,, so I dont think them!!! tell
yourself every day that you are going to get and feel
better soon, tell yourself all the good things that
come from a slower life style, be creative and think
of things you can do.. Write a book?. lay in bed and
draw art? design a house? What ever.. there are no
limits..!!!


substance abuse , hard for many people to give up.. I
quit drinking took years to finally give it up. I did
not drink daily just occasional binge drinking on
weekends, but it was nice to give it up all together,
now in a social setting I just accept a beer when
offered, and sip it, then discard it when no ones
looking. to not make a big deal about not drinking,,
Quit smoking took me many years. I Quit anxiety pills
that made me have worse panic attacks than my first
anxiety caused! (kolonapin), bad stuff, never take
it... Quit Coffee, no problem for me, never drank it,
it gave me palpitations. many people are addicted too
caffeine it must be reduced slowly and discontinued
for heart health,, Quit Chocolate. No pain pills throw
them away...

The doctors are limited to a hand full of medicine
classes. I think they have a hard time dealing with
sick people all the time and want to just say your ok
sometimes, its ok, We have ten times more control
with our diet and health program.. very few people
give me advice on natural remedies on the various
heart forums I dont know why But I want other peoples
advice on heart smart diet and so on. every day I find
more and better heart smart diet ideas.

(fresh raw or cooked fish, deep pacific ocean fish,
I'm from Seattle so I dont know about Atlantic fish
..stay away from bottom fish, I only eat cod if its
from alaska)
I experimented with raw red meats had good results
mostly, and one stomach ache. I quit doing it now,, it
does make you feel strong.

oiling the skin- tried vitamin E oil, olive oil,
canola oil, like grape seed oil the best. it feels
good to get a self massage also relaxing,, dry skin
goes away. I put it on my scalp and hair also.. I
went swimming tonight and the water and chlorine bead
off me !!!
Oh yeah swimming is great for the heart just being in
the water makes blood preassure go down I just do kick
board now, slow and easy.. my heart cant take much
more.

Breathing exercises can keep your lungs in shape even
if you are bed riden. and it helps chest pain go
away.. your lungs are partners in crime with your
heart ,, deep breaths to keep the lower lungs
healthy.. After heart surgery they give you a
breathing gaget that makes you blow hard and fast...
thats fine, but its more important to do the slow deep
breaths, opening up your lungs and keeping your
breathing muscles in shape.. After surgery they will
have you hold a pillow over your chest to turn in bed
or move,, also you should inhale and hold to support
the sternum when turning in bed .. it stops the
compresion of the sternum , you just should not sleep
on your side after surgery for a few weeks just up the
angle of the bed for different positions.

You would have to give a better description than that. I mean hypertrophic cardiomyopathy can turn large portions of the heart into expanding layers that can cause massive health problems. The only treatment is to kill some of the hearth tissue to keep it in the correct shape.

And there are a whole host of other less common, while keeping in mind the above disease is not common, diseases that could be described in that fashion.

Endocarditis Endocarditis is an inflammation of your heart's inner lining. The most common type, bacterial endocarditis, occurs when germs enter your heart. These germs come through your bloodstream from another part of your body, often your mouth. Bacterial endocarditis can damage your heart valves. If untreated, it can be life-threatening. It is rare in healthy hearts. Risk factors include having An abnormal or damaged heart valve A severe case of mitral valve prolapse An artificial heart valve Certain heart defects If you have a high risk of bacterial endocarditis, your doctor might prescribe antibiotics before dental work and certain types of surgery. Early treatment can help you avoid complications. Symptoms you might notice include fever, shortness of breath, fluid buildup in your arms or legs, tiny red spots on your skin and weight loss. Treatment usually involves high-dose antibiotics.

Irreversible disease does sound like a possible cardiomyopathy.
View the link for info on that one, but make sure you have the correct diagnosis.
