Hi Everyone,
I am new to this board. My father has recently been diagnosed with HCM and unfortunately he only knows a little about his hereditary background (he was adopted). We have been able to figure out that there have been at least 2 if not more sudden deaths in his immediate family, we are now assuming those were HCM as we thought it was just hypertension. My question is what does this mean for my brother and I and also I have 2 children with a 3rd on the way. Where do we go from here. My dad is being treated by a specialist in HCM at Mass General in Boston. Thanks in advance.
