I have all the issues you have and the myocardial bridging causes the thickened heart muscle and therefore v tachycardias. I couldn't/t take meds as I also have bradycardia and stage 1 diastolic disorder now. I have had holter tests and they all show v tachycardias at times but not too high. I am to go back to electrophysiologist cardiologist for review of latest holter. I am too old for apical septical myectomy(remove part of the heart muscle in area concerned). Mayo Clinic does it. supposedly replaces need for a heart transplant. If younger I would try that.

I’ve just started following this support group and quite a few others on Mayo Connect for help ideas for both my husband’s and my medical conditions. One I wasn’t at all concerned about was my myocardial bridge, discovered when I had a minor heart attack over two years ago(husband had a massive ha a month later). I wasn’t aware that a myocardial bridge caused thickened heart muscle and v-tach. I’m interested in reading about your journey with it.
