Do you see a HCM specialist? Losartan is not a medication that is commonly used in HCM. Many people take Toprol (I take the same amount you do) but the Losartan is unusual and unless prescribed by a doctor with a specialty in HCM, I would wonder about taking it. I travel to Mayo Clinic from California to see a top HCM specialist due to their familiarity with the disease. Many if not most cardiologists are not that well versed in the treatment of HCM.

So true, my husband traveled to Rochester to see the experts in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and had a fantastic meeting with Dr Geske who was thorough and we came away from that meeting more enlightened about the disease.
