hi everybody.
Here I go again. just wondering do any of you know what this means. I had an echo done today and now dr. says this wall is thinning. I don't get it. I think I have heard a little about this, but not sure what it means. ANYONE???
Or does it mean anything and is just a part of the craziness of this heart???? I am thinking it probably means something. That is not "normal" for that to happen....
And is this real common for most of us? I have never been told this was happening on echo's in the past.
I appreciate you guys talking in real people way!
The apex is part of the wall of the left ventricle? Is that part right? I can't find anything about this specific thing on the internet yet.
I gave my cardiologist a brochure and information about the HCMA. He was glad to know about it. He says he has 3 or 4 other patients with HCM and he is going to share this with them. I feel like I did a little good in passing along this!!!
Thanks for any info!!
I have never really even knew of an apex in the heart! helloooooo!
take care,
Lisa A.
