Hi and welcome to HCM,thank you for your query.
You dont have to be worried. It sound slike serious disease but it is treatable and the disease is in most cases not severe. treatment may last up to 6 months and if you dont have some other serious diseases, then recovery is not questionable just follow doctors recommendations and have frequent follow up. Wish you good health. Regards.
