Hi there. I’ve had cardiomyopathy badly for about 13 years now. Started off reasonably mild then progressed to the point of being dizzy and breathless getting dressed in the morning. I couldn’t do anything without feeling like I was on a ship in a storm. Listen to the docs and research. Stay positive and know that there are things that can be done to help. Stay hydrated - it really makes a difference.

I’ve had a septal ablation procedure, have an ICD fitted and am on a beta blocker- and feel great. All the best

Oh and I’m on metroprolol (after trying a few that made me feel terrible)
