Patient's question:
My friend's father has been diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. He can no longer do much work and sometimes even feels short of breath and weak when cleaning. Although there are currently valuable drugs for treatment, seeing his poor condition, my friends are very worried. Can hypertrophic cardiomyopathy still be cured?Doctor's answer:
Chronic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a pathological manifestation type of cardiomyopathy, often accompanied by heart failure. Cardiomyopathy is a difficult-to-control disease, often recurring repeatedly, with its severity related to the condition of heart function. If heart failure frequently occurs or is accompanied by severe arrhythmias, it indicates a more severe condition; otherwise, it is relatively mild. In terms of diet, it is important to focus on consuming nutrient-rich foods and avoid habits like skipping dinner or having a meat-poor, unbalanced diet.
