Hello my name is Paul, I was diagnosed with HCM in 2010, I watched my mother die who also had HCM she was 43. I currently have an ICD and I take nadolol to slow my heart down, was just diagnosed stage 3 heart failure and my mitral valve is also at stage three, I keep a good diet blending veggies and fruits is my breakfast, dinner and supper so I am only on one medication.

Hello @thehound572001. I’m glad you’ve joined this incredible group on Connect – Welcome!
I’d like to share this video, where Dr. Steve R. Ommen, director, Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Clinic at Mayo Clinic, reviews hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, sudden death and implantable defibrillators

Paul, with the additional diagnoses (heart failure, mitral valve disorder) what are the next steps in treatment?
