Hi. Are you also sixteen_and_still_living? You should be careful when living with HCM, but you shouldn't feel like you're in jail. What kind of treatment are you on? Any medicines? How thick is your heart? Do you have an ICD? There are a lot of questions before we can try to help you. Tell us more about yourself and we'll be glad to try our best.

Try to call the HCMA office - lets talk and maybe we can help get you some information that will make your teachers, friends and family a little more comfortable with HCM.
take care,

yeah, they do it to me too. now its like ive become a burden to them. all of them doctor bills are so expensive, i can do the same things my friends want to or can do. sometimes i think they all feel trapped, and in return i feel trapped also. I know i shouldnt, but i cant make them understand why i have to be careful. i think they only think i get a little dizzy then i fall, they dont realize how much that ICD hurts or how scary the whole ordeal is. I think some of them finally realized about two weeks ago when i was in the pool (didnt know i couldnt do that) and i got shocked once, this is when i blacked out, i stood up and started walking to the center of the pool then i fell and my friend Toby was making sure i wouldnt drowned so he caught me and everyone feeling the same way reached for me, only a few actualy touched me, and thats when i got shocked the second time. everyone eles in the pool says they felt a small tingle. Everyone is all right.~Kimber~Comment
