A member asked:
Why is it that people with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy/left ventricular hypertrophy have sudden fatigue attacks-even while at rest?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
HCM: Patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy can have paroxysmal tachycardia episodes and the rapid heart rate can cause decreased cardiac output in these folks and result in fatigue.
