I'm looking for any information from some one who has dealt with heart transposition. My husband was born with this sixty-four years ago. About 15 years ago he found he had this. Doctor treated him for high blood pressure. Changed primary doctor and husband ask to be referred to new cardiologist. Primary asked why and husband said to make sure every thing was ok since he had been seeing one. Primary said it wasn't needed until a year later when my husband went to the office and the found that his heart is only pumping 15% and they thought there was a clot. Now they say it could be a clot or a mass that attached itself to the heart. He has been put on coumadin 5m,coreg 25m twice a day and cozaar5m He had told doctors before that he had shortness of breath and a pain in his left should when he walked. We have been told the pain wasn't related. We would like any information or a doctor that has dealt with this.
