    hi friends,im an Indian male,46 years old,diagnosed with hocm 12
yrs ago.my common symptoms are low endurance tolerance,fatigue,angina
and breathlessness(esp while sleeping at night).echo shows LVOT grad =
60mm ,LVEF = 60%, IVS=24mm ,SAM+,ASH,mild MR and good LV function.i was
on a low dosage of calcium channel blockers all along but since the
last 18 months,my cardiologist gradually increased the dosage to 360mg
of diltiazem a day (divided doses)and i began feeling better almost
immediately.however the symptoms remained to a lesser   extent.three
weeks ago a new cardiologist changed my medication to norpace
100mg(thrice daily) and selokenXL 25mg one OD(beta blocker)and to my
amazement my symptoms have reduced significantly with no episode of
orthopnia/apnoea during the new regime.can anyone with hocm share a
similar experience?

The key in your treatment is to slow down and control your heart rate.

Ouch. You may have at the other cheek, neighbor.

In truth, the gospels are more than one line.

You will be in my prayers, dear Chanda, whom I love, in Lord Christ's
holy name.

May you reject your pride and accept Him as your personal Lord and
Savior, someday, so that you too will have eternal life and the
fascinating riches of His everlasting kingdom.

Here's how:

http://makeashorterlink.com/?I22222129

Please note that God truly made this special link describing that He is
the great "I am" and that His message is as simple as the number 2 which
is a number between 1 to 9 and reminds us of His 2 commandments,  the 2
arms of the cross, the 2nd part of the Trinity, the 2 finger sign of the
Prince of Peace [who remains *V*ictorious over death and satan], and the
2PD Approach.  Let it not ever be written that Christ did not make His
presence known here on Usenet :-)

Also, note that Exodus 16:16 continues to remind us that 16 oz plus 16
oz makes 2 pounds, which is "a certain measure of weight," which is what
"omer" literally means in Hebrew.

Enter the 2PD-OMER Approach:

If you don't find anyone here with similar HOCM experiences, you might
try alt . support-heart  or you might try -
"The Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Association is a not for profit 501(c)
(3) organization formed in 1996 to provide information, support and
advocacy to patients, their families and medical providers."
http://www.4hcm.org

I hope you stick around here too though. Despite the ng troll, whom
you've already met, it's not too bad of a spot to pick up information.

Ouch.  You may have at the other cheek.

Lord Christ teaches from Matthew 5:

11Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely
say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12Rejoice and be glad,
because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they
persecuted the prophets who were before you.

You will remain in my prayers, dear neighbor, whom I love, in Lord
Christ's holy name.

May you reject your pride and accept Him as your personal Lord and
Savior, someday, so that you too will have eternal life and the
fascinating riches of His everlasting kingdom.
