I add my welcome Misty.
We have several members talking about hypertrophic cardiomyopathy on Connect. Some have the obstructive type of HCM, hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) and others the non-obstructive type, which is of course apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
I'm tagging fellow Connect members @cynaburst @lynnkay1956 @PatMattos @Sensation @ronaldpetrovich @23273333 to bring them into this discussion about apical HCM and possibly address your question about the wall thickness.
Also, Misty on Nov 2 we are hosting a webinar on "Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and the Surgical Treatment Apical Myectomy" with Mayo Clinic cardiac experts Drs Schaff and Ommen You can sign up to take part here: http://mayocl.in/2dmWhdI

I thought it might have been the webinar that brought you to Connect. I'm thrilled so many members have greeted you. You will meet more during the webinar too. I might suggest you sign-up for the webinar. That way you'll get an email reminder the day before and an hour before. No need to translate into your time zone.

Thanks for welcoming me. It was the webinar which I saw which directed me to you. As you can see from my post above I have shown nsvt on a monitor although I didn't realise. I did go into A&E (I'm in the UK) on 1st July with an irregular heart rate which I think may have been caused by working outside in the heat (it was a very hot day). I was put on a 24 hour monitor afterwards, but there has been no communication from the hospital since and although I've phoned I've got nowhere. Hence I'm determined to find out as much as I possibly can about apical cardiomyopathy.
