I recently found my diagnosis in my medical file where it was diagnosed three years ago via a cat scan but no one told me! Brought it up to my cardiologist at my yearly appointment last Thursday November 2nd and she ordered a Echo saying there’s not a current one. I have that done in A week and see her again December 2nd! Iam currently diagnosed with sic sinus node syndrome where my pulse go fast then slow I have A pacemaker and am on beta blockers and other blood pressure meds. My current symptoms are lack of energy, short of breath, dizziness, and get very faint and nauseous when I sand! Requested a appointment with mayos. Have experience with them as a child. Also my mother had HCM.

I wish u the best of luck! Hopefully u can get some help for your symptoms. Once i was placed on metrop and diltiazam my symptoms r very minimal. Mayo is the best place to be. Dr ommen is a rockstar

I can't imagine you are only finding out now! That's crazy! But thankfully your cardiologist is ordering a new echo. Your symptoms sound like HCM for sure. I am happy to hear you are requesting an appointment with the Mayo. That is where I ultimately ended up. Mayo Rochester to be exact. Finest organization on the planet. I hope you will keep us posted on your progress @drumsace. This is a wonderful place to share with each other and find support. Do you have the Mayo appointment request link?
