HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY?
My baby has had open heart surgery to correct a valve and the above.. he said that the muscle have quadrupled within a week.. what will happen next?
Answer: cardiomyopathy is a serious condition when you are old.
however because your baby is so young and the valve was fixed the muscle shoudl reduce is size.
the muscle increased in size because the heart took more effort pumping with the bad valve.
so in the few weeks or months muscle will reduce in size and any abnormal blood pressure or cardiac rhythm should dissipate.

Can a drug overdose lead to death by HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY or is this condition always genetic.?
If the condition is always genetic can it be aggravated by drug abuse which may in turn lead to sudden heart failure?
Answer: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is quite a heterogeneous condition. What I mean by that is that HCM may present quite differently between individuals, even within the same family.
In general, the risk of sudden cardiac death is assessed on the basis of a family history, a personal history of collapses and from echocardiographic features. Sometimes genetic testing is included in this assessment.
HCM is caused by mutations in sarcomeric proteins (the proteins which make up the contractile apparatus of the heart muscle). However, it is possibly to develop a form of hypertrophied heart which is not linked to this genetic abnormality. This may result from lots of exercise (mostly at competitive level) and occasionally for abuse of drugs including cocaine and amphetamines. But strictly speaking this type of hypertrophy is different from HCM both in its origins and outcome.
Yes, taking drugs (especially cocaine or amphetamines) may increase the likelihood of developing a serious heart rhythm abnormality which could lead to death. Obviously the greater the underlying background risk (from the HCM), the greater the chances that these drugs could cause problems.
So bottom line is....if you, or someone you know, has HCM, then drugs should be avoided, particularly those which may be pro-arrhythmogenic.

How did your life change after you were diagnosed with HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY?
My mom and myself have Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and I am wondering how much our lives will change. Has anyone out there been diagnosed with HCM? How did your life change? Do you know of any support group for others with HCM.
Answer: The Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Association !
www.4hcm.org
They have an online Forum with plenty of message boards to ask questions, share experiences, and even help others:
http://www.4hcm.org/forums/forum.php
I would be really interested if you find their HCMA online Forum helpful or not.
If you do make contact with them, would you please kindly mention that you learned of them from our "American Self-Help Group Clearinghouse."
Also, check to see if there is any "Mended Hearts" support group near you:
http://mendedhearts.org/about-us/chapters
If there is, just phone the group contact person and ask if there are others there with HCM.
Wishing you and your mom the very best.
Take care and hope,

How do you get HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY?
I know this may sound like a stupid question, but I want to know if its possible to develop this condition at an point in life. Like if I had my EKG and echo 2 years ago and its fine, can my doctor find I have this condition 2 years later? Or can I just get it at any point? I looked at sites like wikipedia and it just talks about what it is, the diagnosis... but Im wondering if anyone can get it at any time? Thank you.
Answer: I think this very small topic will help you out:
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This type involves abnormal growth or thickening of your heart muscle, particularly affecting the muscle of the left ventricle. As thickening occurs, the heart tends to stiffen and the size of the pumping chamber may shrink, interfering with your heart's ability to deliver blood to your body. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy can develop at any age, but the condition tends to be more severe among those diagnosed during childhood. Researchers have identified abnormal genes that predispose people to Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Most affected people have a family history of the disease.

Should i get my children tested for HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY?
My father died from it, i was tested and i am ok, but are my children at risk?
Answer: To my knowledge Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is an autosomal dominant disorder and therefore if you were carrying the gene you would express it. With this knowledge you shouldn't need to have you children checked. Having said this however it is also true that mortality rates for Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is higher in children than adults and in my opinion it is sometimes better to be safe than sorry (especially when family is involved). I realise this is a 'little from column A and a little from column B' type of answer, but it'll at least give you something to think about.
The bottom line is see your family practitioner, he/she will sort you out with the best advice.

Is there a connection between LBBB and HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY?
I wonder bc I was diagnosed with LBBB and my cousin was diagnosed with Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and I know Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is thought to be genetic...and the symptoms of Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy abd LBBB are similar.
so could i have undiagnosed Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy? I have the shortness of breath, I was diagnose with excercise induced asthma, etc. is the only thing tested for the thickening?
Answer: Well, there is no connection per se between left bundle branch block and Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
In simple terms, LBBB refers to a problem with the heart's electrical conductivity and Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a thickening of the heart muscle.
The only "connection" is that the conductivity issue will aggravate the overall cardiac output, which is already lowered by the hypertophic cardiomyopathy.
RM: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is not difficult to diagnose. If you have seen a cardiologist, I'm certain that he/she would have been able to detect this.

Please contact your physician to choose a right job for him. He is in a better position to recommend.

I have hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, Anyway i can prolong my life ?
I have been Diagnosed with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy , Should i stop sports ? and change my diet ?
What is the best ways to prolong my life as i dont want to die young.
Answer: It entirely depends on your just how hypertrophied your heart muscle is. If the problem is mild then it may not impede on your life at all. If your problem is moderate to severe then some people are told to avoid strenuous exercise as much as possible.
With regards to diet, there are no specific foods you need to avoid bit it is important that you do not become too overweight as this will put a strain on your heart. Avoid alcohol too.
The main risk is arrhythmia's which are the most common cause of sudden death in young adults. Are you taking any medication? If you re-edit this question with more detail I can be of more help.

Answer: I don't see a connection with Medrone, a glucocorticosteriod, and Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In fact, if the suspected asthma component had an inflammatory aspect, Medrone would be useful.
If you are looked the disease up, you already know the prognosis for a cat with that problem is not real encouraging once clinical signs show up.

HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY?
It causes cardiac muscle cells to enlarge, thickening the heart wall. The heart pumps strongly but doesnt relax well during diastole when heart is filling. How does this cause death?
When the cardiac muscles enlarge and thicken the heart wall, dont they make the heart wall stronger? isnt it the same for athletes? if so, then why will this cause death?
Answer: One of the main problems with Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is that the heart muscle gets so thick that it cannot perfuse itself. That leads to subendocardial ischemia and infarction.
Dead muscle doesn't pump too well.
