It was a great experience being a guest speaker at a Cardiomyopathy UK support group.
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia / cardiomyopathy (ARVD/C) and Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM) are challenging conditions where patients and even clinicians lack knowledge when advising safe exercise practices.
Today’s talk “Exercising Beyond Diagnosis” was about empowering patients to better understand their condition and learn the right questions to ask.
I wouldn’t have been able to advise these patients if I hadn’t been working in cardiac rehab where I frequently see these patients, working privately with these conditions or without the advanced knowledge and understanding I’ve been gaining from my MSc Sports Cardiology at St. George’s University, London.
