I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure over a year ago. I take Toresmide 40 mg in the morning and just started taken it also 40 in the afternoon. I really don't know my stage. I just know it is progressing. One of my questions is how do you read your NT PROBNP blood test. what does it mean when it gives a value amount.

      Hey, what's was your bnp when diagnosed/now? Mine when diagnosed in 2015 was a little over 20,000...I was extremely sick...my EF was below 10% and they had to put in an impella...do u know what your EF is? That would help to know what stage u are in.

      I forgot what my EF is but my heart is functioning better with Entresto twice a day. I take Torsemide in the morning and sometimes I run to the bathroom every ten minutes for hours. Have you experienced this with taking the diuretic? This can’t be good on kidney functioning.
