History of sarcoidosis in lungs. Having shortness of breath and chest pain/pressure with mild exercise. Had Echocardiogram which shows moderate to severe left ventricular hypertrophy. Any treatment options for this condition?

You should asked your cardiologist and EP about how to treat your condition based on your specific condition.
You can use A.I. to get research sites that can give you research on this but you really need to be given treatment plans by your doctors. Only they know your full medical and mental health history, all the medications and supplements you are taking.
I do take medications for my heart failure. I take entresto and coreg. The stopped the reduction in my EF and has been steady for 10 years now at 22%. I also have a ICD/Pacemaker which helps my heart beat better electrically so you can see a person full medical and mental health history is crucial for finding the right treatments for you.
Get your doctors to give you treatment recommendations and then research them, then do your own, then asked every question you can think off

I see you tried to share a link. While there is a temporary restriction on sharing links for newer members, please allow me to share the link for you: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/left-ventricular-hypertrophy/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20374319.
@lstrhit, I'd also like to invite @charliemac and @cltotten1 who both discussed being diagnosed with left ventricular hypertrophy on Connect in the past and may be able to share how they are currently doing and what their experiences have been like living with this diagnosis.
