Hi, till now indications for EECP treatment are physical activity limiting angina, on maximal angina relieving treatment and when there is no any other way for revascularization, ie improve heart blood supply. If your quality of life worsening cause is not angina but heart failure symptomes- shortness of breath because heart pumping function is decreased, the use of EECP hasen't yet much approved, data are controversal. But still you can apply for such treatment, there are recent somehow weak data showing symptom improvement in patients like you and if your doctor agree to perform, it will be as a try. Good luck and be healthy!
