Has anyone had minimally invasive Septal Myectomy?

That was my aim. I live in SC and having a very hard time finding Cardiologist who is familiar, positive and licensed to prescribe this medication.
Also the cost is very high!
Is it covered through my Medicare advantage plan, what if plan drops you, distance to travel for monthly echos.
But haven’t had that discussion with a supportive cardiologist yet. Disappointing.

Camzyos has a plan to pay for the medications for you to take. I tried by had side effects. I so wanted to take the medication instead of surgery. I also am a bit scared of the whole process.

Keep trying to find a cardiologist! I had to convince my doctor to try it. Call Bristol Myers Squibb to see if they can help you find a doctor and options for coverage. There are many ways to get it co reed as reported in this chat group. Everyone is different.
