    greetings dear brother 🙂

    we have to explain to you that HOCM is not curable, but most symptoms caused
    by the condition can be controlled by using medicines.

    A small number of people who have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with
    obstruction will still have symptoms even though they are taking the
    maximum amount of medicines.

    they may need further treatment to
    help reduce their symptoms and improve their heart muscle function.

    There are two main types of treatment:
    • surgical myectomy
    • septal ablation.

    so we advice you to consult cardiologist for complete examination , you should inform your doctor that you want to proceed to the next step and try another option as you are not controlled with your drugs ,,,,

    hope you speed recovery 🙂
