HCM is a very funky condition. I was told when I was young that I had a murmur and tested for a nonfunctional one. As I entered my 40’s bp meds, otherwise good. Now at 66, developed afib which I will have an ablation for. My EP dr yesterday said that I was” bound” to get afib due to my HCM. It’s a scary thing as you get older that other things begin to arise… 🙏 for all of us! My brother had HCM and afib and unfortunately died suddenly @ 66 years old, my parents in their 90’s when they died. Trying to deal with all this new information given to me.., It’s not easy!
I just add you to my site hope you do not mind. I think God is aways close and some times move in closer. Hope u are doing well and keep in touch.
I was told that when I was waiting for a new heart..God was in my room. I had tremendous dreams of God being near
