Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms could be related to blood pressure fluctuations or an electrolyte imbalance.

If the problem persists, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician for a careful physical exam and some tests:

- a resting ECG
- a cardiac ultrasound
- complete blood count for anemia
- blood electrolytes for possible imbalance.

I would also recommend you to closely monitor your blood pressure values.

Hope to have been helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
