Is cardiac myopathy curable.What cares should the patients take ?

You cannot cure it, but you can stop it from progressing and getting worse. This is what the experts say you should do:
The severity and duration of dilated cardiomyopathy often depend on its cause. In most cases, you will need to take a number of medications. Diet and lifestyle changes are also important in managing your symptoms. Limiting salt intake, balancing rest and activity, restricting alcohol consumption, and weighing yourself daily to note water retention are all important ways to control this condition.
