Hi Deanna529, yes 2022, it's coming up 2 years in July. I was 75 at the time, almost 76. I had led a very active life with no problems: first a jogger, then a walker, bike, paddle, traveling etc. The incident in Feb 2022 was the turning point and the rest is history. My cardiologist has said I had "an unusual kind" of HCM because I had no pain or difficulty breathing, even during stress tests, until 2/2022 even with the progressing obstruction over the years. The day before we began our drive to Rochester MN I did my usual routine at the gym (I focus on strength, balance and flexibility), I do not consider that fun. Genetic testing of 123 known HCM genes in 2022 found no mutations. I feel so bad for everyone who has not found the treatment to alleviate their symptoms because quality of life is so important. I have been back doing everything I have always done.

@walkinggirl
Thank you for the information.
May I ask, What was your turning point? Your incident on Feb. 22? It sounds like you really did not have any symptoms until February of '22. What happened?
I used to be a runner and jogger also. But the symptoms of HOCM hit me at age 67. I had my open heart surgery when I was 68. I am 74 now. I am hoping for some quality of life.
I am so happy for you!
