Hello everyone. I was diagnosed with Non obstructive HCM December 2022. My reason for the visit was that I had palpitations that lasted a few days. Was put on 50mg of Metoprolol and everything was fine until this past March. Had a Trans esophageal echo done as part of a checkup to see how my HCM was progressing. No afib detected at that time. Had a follow up appointment with my cardiologist a few weeks later. She said everything looked the same but noticed I had afib. After wearing a heart monitor it was determined to be persistent. Was put on Eliquis and amiodarone immediately. Had a cardioversion not long after and just had an ablation 4 days ago. Happy to get off the amiodarone. My cardiologist never mentioned being at increased risk for afib after originally being diagnosed with HCM. If she would have, I think I’d been more proactive at preventing some of its triggers.
