Yes. I was dizzy, had palpations sometimes, short of breath, pressure and pain in my chest, felt really crappy if dehydrated a bit and seemed to get worse after a meal or when I laid down. Got the myectomy and feel much better . Don't feel 100%, but feel better than before. Had a significant murmur before and now my cardiologist said the murmur is hardly noticable now.

Thanks for replying. How many times a day did you feel dizzy, SOB, pain in chest, etc? What did you do to relieve symptoms? How long did you suffer with symptoms before having surgery? What foods would you recommend to avoid having worsening of symptoms? Sorry so many questions but have nobody to ask and have been dealing with symptoms for 4.5 months and my local doctors haven't a clue what I am even talking about. They refer to them as episodes. " Are you still having episodes they will ask. Maybe you are just anxious, stressed today". I try to explain, can happen anywhere, anytime. So glad you have relief. Gives me hope!!
