My appointment ran 2 hours. My LVOT is 6 now, before taking Camzyos it was 12 resting and between 100 and 140 during my stress test. My ejection fraction is 55 to 60. It was 65 to 70 before I started the med.

I am still experiencing shortness of breath, fatigue, intermittent angina, and a high heart rate (in the 90), averaging in the high 70s even when I am sleeping. So he ordered a stress echo since the normal limited echo does not show an obstruction; but, upon excretion, there is a severe obstruction. Probably why I have been misdiagnosed for years.

I am in my 7th week. He is still hopeful that Camzyos will start to give me some relief. He talked about putting me on a very low dosage of Metoprolol to slow down my heart rate. We decided to wait until after my stress echo. I am still at 2.5mg of Camzyos. Lost the battle, but hopefully I win the war.

I am staying positive. I am going to Austin today for a Ladies weekend. All of the activities are inside. It will be interesting to see how much I can do.

Hanging in there everyone!
