Hi @boatsforlife - thank you for your reply. I somewhat identify, but prob not completely. Yes, fatigue to me me is feeling I need to take a rest, if I vacuum I need to rest afterwards. Do dishes/cook, need to rest, I don't do stairs, I can but I avoid, mostly. I rarely go into our basement or upstairs. "Getting ready" is so much 'work' to me. I use slip on mules for shoes or any other slip on shoe. This crept up on me, I had no idea. It is not hereditary, but each echo since 2021 is getting worse. I always wonder if Hashimoto's caused it, but doctor says long term HBP more than likely.
But yeah, after I eat, I get dizzy and fatigued, yes, like I need to rest from doing nothing. It's been rough. I have occasional anxiety and get jittery and palpitations but I think it's also part of my Hashimoto's. It's all kinda intermingled, but I feel like rubbish. I don't plan for anything except drs appts. Some days are better than others but it mostly keeps me home. Well, again, thanks for breaking that down. Yes, I understand it, but not sure if it's exactly the same, but it's close.
It's helpful to read people are getting better using this drug. I'm glad I found this forum.
Thanks for your time : )

Any eating with HCM or HOCM one will feel exhausted after eating I have had this for years. I have just had my mitral valve replaced (taken a long time ti figure this out as felt fine and no symptoms. 4 months on have had a tough recovery with pneumonia and Covid. Now have A F and fluid on the lungs. Was it worth it I don’t know. Anyone else had a similar experience.
