HI
Well come to HCM
Actually this is not the criteria to take the clinical condition for treatment but any heart element if having artery disease should equally consider serious and be treated seriously, it should never be underestimated or compare with statistics, it is most advisable to treat the heart disease in same manner whether mild moderate or severe, hope this information helps, take care.( with sever artery disease of heart patient can survive, on other hand in mild attack patient could dies )
