Most people with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy do not have severe heart problems and are able to live a normal life. However, a small number of people with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy have symptoms from the thickened heart muscle, such as shortness of breath, chest pain, fainting, dizziness, fatigue, and heart palpitations or arrhythmias.

primary disorder of the heart muscle characterized by thickening of the left ventricle. This thickening causes the heart to not be able to relax normally when filling with blood. Over time this can lead to elevated pressures within the heart and ultimately congestive heart failure (fluid accumulation).
Understanding Feline Cardiomyopathy
HCM also may cause thickening in other parts of the heart muscle, such as the bottom of the heart called the apex, right ventricle, or throughout the entire left ventricle. Stiffness in the left ventricle occurs as a result of cellular changes that occur in the heart muscle when it thickens.

Additionally, this thickening of the heart muscle increases the heart's own consumption of oxygen, which is needed to supply the additional muscle present. If these oxygen demands are not met, then cell death occurs and leads to areas of scarring in the heart muscle. A third form of heart disease is called restrictive cardiomyopathy.
Cardiomyopathy
Characterizing and Diagnosing Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy from ECG Data Background Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heart condition defined by a thickening of the heart muscle. This thickening makes it harder for the heart to pump blood throughout the body and

symptoms and others may progress to end-stage heart failure. The symptoms of wild-type ATTR-CM may be mild and remain undiagnosed. In its early stages, ATTR-CM may mimic the symptoms of other conditions, such as heart failure related to hypertension (high blood pressure) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (enlargement and thickening of the heart).

As thickening occurs, the heart tends to stiffen and the size of the pumping chamber may shrink, interfering with the heart’s ability to deliver blood to the body. o Restrictive cardiomyopathy – The heart muscle in people with restrictive cardiomyopathy becomes rigid and less ...

Disease of the heart muscle (cardiomyopathy). As this thickening and stiffening of heart muscle progresses, your heart may enlarge to try to pump more blood to your body. High blood pressure in the artery connecting your heart and lungs (pulmonary hypertension). Your heart may need to pump harder to move blood between your lungs and your heart.
