Dear mom of 2 boys,
what if after 3 doctors and 3 diagnosis you are unsatisfied? Alot of dizziness and chest pain and headache which are related to rhythm problems. My daughter is 15, and I'm not sure about all this
My daughter has dizziness and chest pain and had an echocardiogram and EKG and they said she had mitral valve prolapse by one doctor another said normal another wanted to put her on atonerol to regulate her rhythm, any suggestions?
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy is very serious. My husband and son are both diagnosed with it. My other son is suspected to have it as well. Their heart doctor wants to do genetic testing to be sure my youngest indeed has it or not. My husband had no clue he was a walking time bomb til he went to the hospital on unrelated events. There, they found he had a heart murmur. They checked him out and told him he needs surgery immediately. The heart doctor was amazed how much damage there was to my husbands heart. Even more amazed he never had suffered heart attack or anything like that. He was lucky. My son is lucky as well. If it wasn't for my husbands kidney stone i could be a widow. Without my husbands kidney stone my son would of never had a correct diagnosis about his heart condition. I strongly urge you to talk to your doctor and request to be seen by a heart specialist. Point is my husband thought he was in good health. He had regular check ups and he always got a clean bill of health. My son can not take gym class or play competitive sports. He can walk but he can't run a mile. Better to error on the side of caution. Good luck to you.
