Hello Kelli -
My side effects were, fortunately, only in the first few days. I was so relieved when they disappeared - nausea can be something that is not easy to adjust to! I didn't experience any dizziness above and beyond what I experience occasionally with my low blood pressure... I am experiencing NO side effects now which is wonderful. I have tried to stay with daily walks pretty continually (even before) but I felt a real difference in my breathing pretty quickly - (within just a few days) and have started an exercise class for seniors. No cardio in this class but enough movement to note an improvement for certain. This has really lifted my spirits. I have no idea whether Camzyos has any effect on the further advancement of HCP - big question for my Doctor! I suspect not but I am interested in how this will continue to help over time, depending on how advanced one's condition is. ...Always lots of questions !
