i got diagnosed with hypertrophy cardiomyopathy in 2023 after an irregular ECG scan picked up on it plus heart murmurs.
Went for an echocardiogram to confirm the diagnosis. Had to pretty much quit running as well as pretty much all semi to intense sports.
I'm only 26, life is pretty miserable, can only lift weights now even though my actual passion is distance running. But hey, I guess it's better than dropping dead out of nowhere.
Glad you got diagnosed before a tragedy. Curious though - could you get an implantable defibrilator? Would that make any difference in what you'd be able to do exercise-wise?
