Rapamycin for HCM

[croutono]

Hello! I am new. Wanted to put my input on this.

My sweetie's name is Bongo, he was born with a false tendon so we have dealt with heart issues since the beginning. We started rapamycin in December, we went an aggressive treatment route with 3 times a week. We have kept it under control with atenolol-benazepril for the past couple years. He is due for a checkup here in the next couple months so I will be able to report an update then but thus far he has been fine. He is currently at a grade 4/5 murmur.

I posted one but I am not sure what happened to it. I may have included too much unnecessary info about him, I think. I will post another haha. I am not in that FB group, I did not know there was one! I will join it. Thank you <33
