Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

I would explain that your symptoms could be related to high blood pressure or anxiety. Have you measured your blood pressure during these episodes?

Anyway, there are some other situation which can lead to this symptomatology:

- migraine headaches
- thyroid dysfunction
- an intracranial aneurysm.

I would recommend consulting with your attending physician and performing a careful physical exam and some tests:

- some blood lab tests (complete blood count, blood electrolytes, thyroid hormone levels, kidney and liver function tests).
- a brain angio MRI to exclude a possible intracranial lesion.

You should discuss with your doctor on the above issues.

Meanwhile, I would advise you to closely monitor your blood pressure and heart rate frequently during the day or during these episodes and refer them to your doctor.

Hope to have been helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
