I am freaking out right now.
My boyfriend hasn’t messaged me, and it’s been about an hour, I know that it may be a short period of time but he usually answer’s right away.
He has HCM (Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy) Which is pretty much the following:
“HCM is a form of heart muscle disease in which the muscular walls of the ventricles (lower chambers of the heart) become abnormally thickened.
The thickening of the heart muscle causes the muscle itself to function abnormally. The thickening also can cause the ventricles to become distorted, which can interfere with the function of the aortic valve and the mitral valve, which regulate blood flow.” (I will add a picture for those who don’t really understand, or so you have a better idea.)
HCM doesn’t have a cure, the only way of keeping him alive is a prescription drug, and the ultimate result is death.
Also he said he was going home so I worry even more.
Call me a hypercondriatic but I’m just worried shitless about him.
I already lost one boyfriend to cancer I can’t lose another to a deadly heart condition.
So here I am fearing bad news with a sick, twisted, nauseous, feeling that something bad has indeed happened, and I don’t get this feeling often only when really bad stuff has taken place.
Waiting in a fearful silence.

if you are so worry about him why dont you go vist him just in case. Never know he might just be safe and in good condition. You cant just sit and wait and wait if you do that who knows what could happen. message him and if he doesnt replied by in the next 10 maybe 15 minutes go out there and go see if he is okay ^ -^
Thanx, I will
I wish you the best of luck… Does the med actually stop it from getting worse, or just slow it down?
I have no idea :/ All I know is that it keeps him alive.
I wish I knew, I wish I was out there fiding a cure for it or something;
Instead of just watching my boyfriend being a ticking time bomb 🙁
I think you may be dating my brother. It’s a fairly rare disease, so I wouldn’t be that surprised. Does he have a pacemaker?
Not sure, I deff know he takes pills for it.
