Acronyms

Acronyms

I am new here and see there are a number of acronyms used and I can't seem to figure them all out.
So far I know SOB is shortness of breath and HCM is hypertrophic cardiomyopathy though I don't know what the M stands for.

Does anyone have a list of Acronyms commonly used when discussing symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of heart diseases and conditions?

I don't them all either. I guess will learn together as we go.
