General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Thanks for your query on HCM

"As"per your clinical history is concerned please follow like this -

1)Do check your fasting blood sugar level to rule out Diabetes

2)Discuss with your treating doctor about vitamin B-12 and multivitamin with calcium regularly for leg cramp and numbness.

To prevent it in future include [eggs, milk, cheese, meat, fish, shellfish and poultry and green vegetables]in your diet regularly and check your vitamin panel every 3 months.

Hope that helps
