HCD resembes PA: Dyspnea, or shortness of breath, is the most common symptom of hcm and can be associated with fatigue. Dyspnea does not limit lifestyle or exercise capacity; however, severe shortness of breath may occur while lying down in a minority of people with hcm. Angina, or chest pain or pressure, is also frequently reported by with hcm, chest pain --symptms may falsely resemblle a panic instead of hcd.
