Thank you for your reply. I just saw my Cardiologist this week and now am waiting to get the pre authorization for Camzyos. Hopefully I will tolerate it well and it will help me be more active. Right now with the summer heat I cannot walk much without my heart pounding and being short of breath.

I walk in the indoor mall (No mall? Try up and down the aisles of a big box store), the walking track at the Y or on the treadmill at the gym.

Hang in there. Last summer was the same for me (before I went on verapamil and jardiance - this summer is a totally different story - I am out and about with almost no breathlessness at all. It is all a shock to begin with but remember that we are all here for you and most of us are doing quite well.
