I'm fixin to start Camzyos soon so they did an echo yesterday. The nurse went out and got the other nurse who did my previous echo to have her look at it. She tried a few things and they pulled up my previous echo. They didnt include me in the discussion but it seems like they couldnt find the obstruction this time. I have seen the valve leaflets folding back over the wrong outlet blocking flow at the end of pump for the last 12 years and while I was on mavacamten clinic trial for 6 months. When I asked them "Does that mean I'm cured?" they said my doctor would talk to me. Do you know if Camzyos is only prescribed for obstruction or if it can be used for ordinary HCM to help slow hard pumping or help reduce septum thickness?

It is also prescribed to help reduce septal thickness

Please let us know what your doctor says. I was told it is not a cure but a remedy.
