How Does Alzheimer S Disease Affect Heart?
I have been diagnosed with ALS. My brother had ALS. He died seven years ago. No one else in the family has it. My question is how will ALS affect my heart? I am on three cardiac meds. I have an enlarged area in one area. My cardiologist told me that I will have CHF later. My e-mail address is YYYY@YYYY . My name is Sheila.

Good afternoon Ms. Sheila. My name is Dr. Saghafi and I'm a neurologist from Cleveland, OH. I would like to answer your question, however, please clarify whether or not you are asking about how ALZHEIMER's DISEASE AFFECTS the HEART as the question asks.....or are you asking about how ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) affects the heart as is being asked and notated in the BODY of the question?
