I am 46 years old and was diagnosed with HCM 4 years ago. I reside in Manitoba Canada and I will hopefully be starting this medication very soon. There was a lot of confusion at first. I went for my baseline echo a week ago at a private clinic as the hospital have a 9 month wait. I have two insurances and neither will cover the costs. I am working with Bayshore and they are helping with the cost and arranging my Echocardiograms. I will post an update once I have started treatment. Here’s to hoping it improves my quality of life.
