HCM-ers: Introduce yourself or just say hi
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) | Last Active: 15 hours ago | Replies (1163)Comment receiving replies
Hi,
I am 79 and have recently been diagnosed with HCM and waiting to begin taking Aficamten. I’m concerned about side effects and costs. I’d appreciate knowing what other’s have experienced.

@carolinca Welcome to Connect and the big hearted HCM group in particular! With your recent diagnosis, you may have many questions and concerns. Your 2 specific questions at this time are great starting points. I have never taken Camzyos, I cannot address your concerns but would like you to look at some of the Camzyos threads under discussion. I am not at home with my computer mouse so that I can copy and paste the links for you. Please, in your browser, please type Mayo Clinic Connect Camyzos side effects and then when you have finished looking over comments, type Mayo Clinic Connect Camzyos cost. How did your doctor determine you had HCM? How long have you been experiencing symptoms? Again, welcome to this discussion.
