It is one of the marker for heart failure. Do 2 d echo and consult cardiac specialist.

You must be having breathlessness for which this test was done.. A normal BNP rules out heart disease as a cause of breathlessness, but a high BNP has many causes. most common of them is heart disease. Get a 2 d echo done and also look for diastolic dysfunction on echo
