How would you know if you had an enlarged heart?  There’s no simple blood test for enlarged hearts.  I’d suggest talking to your doctor, if you’re concerned.  They can look at your heart’s size, heart function, or whatever else they’d consider relevant to figure out what’s going on.  Maybe they’ll suggest an echocardiogram, or perhaps a different test, like a CAT scan.

what is an ecocardiogram?
user
It’s a kind of test for the heart.  Doctors can see the structure of your heart, and also how well it’s pumping.  An ecocardiogram is similar to an ultrasound, but it can tell you more about the heart.
