How serious is an enlarged left atrium? What is the treatment for it?!
Question: I have been experiencing dizziness and some minor chest pain recently along with double vision. I went to the doctor and was given an 8 point EKG. The EKG machine said I had an enlarged atrium and I am going to have a chest X-ray then to a cardiologist. I would like to know what the treatment is for this condition, and how serious it is.

Enlargement of atrium is a consequence of a heart disease, probably a valve defect.
Consult a cardiologist who may do an echocardiogram and tell you what the problem really is!
are u sure your dizziness is becoz u have heart problem? Its not serious. but risky
