Hello!
Thank you for your question on HCM! I understand your concern.
I think that your symptoms may be caused by a metabolic disorer:
- A low thyroid function can lead to chronic fatigue
- A low adrenal gland function can
- Electolytes imbalance
- Chronic anemia
I would recommend you to consult with your GP, perform routine blood test for chronic anemia, renal and liver function tests, thyroid hormone levels, cortisol plasma levels and electrolytes.
Hope to have been of help!
