Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concern, I would explain that his symptoms do not seem to be cardiac related.

They could be related to musculo-skeletal pain or inflammation.

You have nothing to worry about!

I recommend consulting with his attending physician for a careful physical examination, a resting ECG, a chest X ray study and some blood lab tests:

- complete blood count
- inflammmation tests (PCR, sedimentation rate).

You should discuss with his doctor on these issues and the proper treatment based on his test results.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Best wishes,

Dr. Iliri
