Aloha, my name is Pam and apparently you’re my tribe. 😊
Hi! I’m, Susan and my grandson was recently diagnosed with HCM.
I was told that my heart problems would be solved with a TAVR procedure. Had TAVR on Aug. 31. On same day I was told I had HCM. When I left, I felt worse than before the TAVR because of all the other new drugs, I needed. I have gone down hill since then. I get tired just walking around the house. In my opinion, I didn’t need the TAVR. I needed the thickened heart mussel attended to.
Hi. I'm Joyce and was just diagnosed with HCM at 71. I have hypertension, high cholesterol, pre-diabetic. I am also overweight which I know for general health is necessary. I lost 60 and gained back 30. I need to lose 40 pounds. I have a diagnosis of binge eating which is actually a medical diagnosis.
I'm looking forward to discussions and information on HCM.
Hi
I am a senior Citizen with Coronary Artery Decease and other co-morbidity. Vegetarian diet, Yoga 6 days a week for one hour, no tobaccos, no alcohol.
2019 had CABG (Revascularization Surgical Procedures - Triple Bypass Surgery / Triple Coronary artery bypass grafts, coronary bypass x3 with free LIMA to the LAD, saphenous vein graft to the obtuse marginal, saphenous vein graft to the diagonal). On medication Rosuvastatin 10 mg, Ezetimib, Losartan, Low dose aspirin.
Recently had ECHO TRANSTHORACIC (TTE) and found Left Ventricular apical RWMA (regional wall motion abnormality). Cardiologist recommends the LDL to be less than 70 and the apolipoprotein B to be less than 80 so Rosuvastatin from 10mg to 20 mg daily dose increased.
Cardiologist visit is being planned.
Thanks
DJ
