Mine was 75% in October, but, I have nothing to compare it with, the doc was pleased, so that is one area I am not worried about....................yet. How often, by the way, should a person have an echo performed?

Only when needed.

If your EF was that high, you should be able to go years without a subsequent echo.

Thanks, I was leaning that way myself, but, it is always nice to hear what others have to say as well.
