Hello!
Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your husband symptoms could be related to TIA (transient ischemic attacks) or seizures.
A cardiac arrhythmia can not be excluded either.
Coming to this point, I would recommend performing further tests:
- an ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring to investigate for cardiac arrhythmia
- a brain MRI study
- an EEG.
You should discuss with his doctor on the above issues.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
