The doctor must have been more worried about the level of iron in the heart rather than the load on the heart from the fluid in the blood transfusion.
I don't know enough to comment on iron overload in the heart.
I have ferritin overload in the liver and my liver enzymes are raised. Liver biopsy showed increased iron and ferritin which has caused hepatitis.
As far as I'm aware this hasn't caused me to feel sick. I think it's my treatment causing me to feel ill.
