What are the different types of heart disease?
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common type and is the leading cause of heart attacks. When you have CAD, your arteries become hard and narrow. Blood has a hard time getting to the heart, so the heart does not get all the blood it needs. CAD can lead to: Angina. Angina is chest pain or discomfort that happens when the heart does not get enough blood.

How long can you survive cardiomyopathy without a heart transplant?
It depends on the severity of the case. A friend of mine was lucky to be in the hospital before the worst of it kicked in. He nearly had a heart transplant, but in the end, didn't get on. He's been living for over 10 years with his heart regulated by a constant series of medications and cardiologist visits. There are a variety of types of cardiomyopathy, including hypertrophic, dilated and arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy. Heart transplants are more commonly used in dilated cardiomyopathy but with appropriate care and today's drug treatments (including betablockers and ACE inhibitors) and heart devices (including biventricular pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators - ICDs) most affected people will never need a heart transplant.
