Over the last 2 years I was diagnosed and had surgery for HCM as my septum had enlarged and hardened to the point that blood could not get out of my left chamber. As I have been recovering I noticed that I no longer perspire as easily as I used to before my surgery. For years I experienced this. Has anyone else dealing with HCM experienced this? Could this be an early symptom of HCM? thank you.
