CRT-P Pacemaker

I'm having dyssyncrony between ventricles with a high QRS and a lowered ejection fraction (low 40%) with some mild/moderate dilation of both ventricles. EP feels it's caused by the dual lead PM I have (lead in atrium and RV) and he feels I need a CRT-P so heart function doesn't continue to deteriorate. I have been pacing in ventricles at over 90% since PM was installed 4/15.  What's everyone's experience with reduced heart function caused by a dual lead PM and the results after switching to a CRT-P bi-ventricle PM?

It may be the first time we've felt a normal heart rhythm in a long time, so of course it seems too fast and too strong.
