Chronic Heart Failure - How do I tell my friends?

Hello all. I'm 19F. I just got diagnosed with Chronic Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction, which basically means that my heart is too stiff to relax to let enough blood flow into my heart. Anyway, I have an amazing support system with my family, but I've been trying to think of ways to tell my friends. They are very easy going and funny people, so I don't want to just drop the revelation in the group chat. I just don't know how to tell them without completely changing the dynamic of our friend group. I don't want them to worry about me. Does anyone have any advice on what to say? Should I even tell them? I think that maybe the reason I don't want to tell them is because I haven't fully accepted that it's real.
