Hello doctor! I have congenital heart disease (atrial septal defect of oval hole, diameter of 12mm transesophageal ultrasound without intervention) and essential hypertension, sinus tachycardia with right bundle branch block with increased blood fat. That problem caused my eyesight to be affected. Currently, I am taking medication for heart and eye treatment at a specialist hospital every day. The doctor asked me, I have such a disease, will my children have the same diseases as me? Thank you doctor!

Answer
Hello! Don't worry too much about congenital heart disease and the diseases you have. Because these diseases are not classified as hereditary diseases, it means that they are not inherited from parents or will be passed on to children.
With your current health problem, you should get treatment under the advice of a specialist or you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System to be discussed by qualified doctors.
Thank you for trusting and sharing the question "Is congenital heart disease, idiopathic blood pressure, hyperlipidemia hereditary?" Wishing your family good health always.
