HI
Okay, so about 1 out of 750 people have HCM. I think I have read on the message board that 60% of the people that have been diagnosed with HCM are men and this would mean 40% are women. I also know that a lot of people who have HCM will never be diagnosed for various reasons. (Access to health care, I am out of shape, no symptoms, mis-diagnosed etc.) My assumption is that there is not enough information for my question.
I wonder about the racial aspects of HCM. If you are an American Indian are your odds the same as a person from the Middle east? As a percentage of the population who the greatest and least risk?
Just wondering
