HI
Thank for asking to HCM
If you do have some functional disorder then instead of taking medicine it is much better to control your self you had brain surgery so looking to this it is advisable not to take this medicine even if it does not cause any harm to you but it may be harmful later on, you can go for natural way of sleeping, have nice day.
