Hi welcome to HCM.
I understand your query and concern.
Concentric left ventricular hypertrophy in your case is due to Hypertension.The drugs you are taking are perfectly correct.Monitor your blood pressure and heart regularly.I advise you to have a baseline 2 dimensional echocardiography,ECG and lipid profile to assess the basic cardiac reserve of your heart.Restrict the intake of salt to less than 6g/day.Regular physical exercise in the form of brisk walk for 20 min a day for 5 days a week is pretty useful.These drugs should be taken with strict supervision of your doctor .Reduce the intake of fatty and fried food.One pomegranate a day will help to keep your heart at good pace without clot formation.Meditation,yoga,breathing exercises will help. Consult a Cardiologist for further expert management.Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
