DEAR USER,
THANKS FOR CONSULTING WITH HCM
I UNDERSTAND THAT HE MIGHT FEEL BETTER TRAVELLIN AT HIS HOME..
BUT HE CAN TRAVEL ONLY AFTER RECOVERY FROM THE ATTACK AND CONSULTATION BY THE PHYSICIAN THERE
THE PHYSICIAN WILL GO FOR ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY AND ECG AND DEPENDING ON THE FINDINGS AND CLINICAL STATUS WILL ADVISE YOU IF HE COULD TRAVEL
HOPE I ANSWERED YOUR QUERY. YOU CAN MESSAGE ME FOR ANY FURTHER CONCERNS
