Thanks for query on HCM.
All doctor should listen every patients carefully and try to manage them very politely and give them complete satisfaction according to me.
Doctors get irritated sometimes due to silly questions.
Keep faith in your doctor because your doctor is the only person who knows your history and your body pattern.
Treatment always depends upon your complete history and your body pattern.
Both drug is anti hypertensive if it does not suits to you than ask your doctor about your query.
