Hello,
I am new here and have a question about children being screened for hcm. My husband was diagnosed with HOCM last year. Our daughters are ages 28 and 30. They have been screened for hcm and do not have it. We have been told different opinions about whether it will show up later in life. They both have been told that if they don't have it now that they are o.k. for the rest of their lives. My husband's dr. says that is not accurate and they need to be screened for the rest of their lives. Can anyone answer this question for me?
Thanks,
Paula
