Welcome to Connect, @barbjp.
You may notice that I moved your discussion and combined it with this existing discussion about hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. I did so as I thought it would be beneficial for you to be introduced to other Connect members who may have more information that might help answer your questions.
If you click on VIEW & REPLY in your email notification, you will see the whole discussion and can join in, and participate with other members wherever you feel comfortable.

I'm confident that Mentor @cynaburst @janicepike @ronaldpetrovich @debcrawford, along with other members in this group, will return to share their insights.

@barbjp, would you share a bit more about yourself? When were you diagnosed? What symptoms are you experiencing?

I was diagnosed nearly 9 years ago and sice that time have a stent and bundle bridge block diagnosed. I see my cardiologist annually and some years I have seen him more frequently. He did a TEE 3, maybe 4 years ago with no problems found. In February I had a heart catheterization because the nuclear stress test indicated a possible blockage, but showed problems with the mitral valve instead. I had a TEE a day later and he detirmined the septal wall had thickened significantly and I was referred to Mayo Rochester for surgery.
I am waiting to be called for an appointment or whatever is next.
