Hi!
Thank you for your response, my cardiologist did call me and go over the results and I have also seen a rythm specialist and together he feels I do not need an icd. I’ve had a cardiac mri done as well and he states that with all of the results combined a icd is not needed.

Thank goodness for that! I have heard that some people who have had to have an ICD, can actually get PTSD if/when the device fires. It can be quite frightening, even though the little thing is keeping you alive.
Other than HCM, how is your health? Are you able to get out and enjoy life?
