Default Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

I have a heart condition known as Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy with evidence of obstruction (HOCM). It is a heart disease that affects the muscle of the heart due to the thickening of the heart muscle. As a result is restricts blood flow to the coronary arteries. I've been treated for it for the past seven years.
I'm curious if there are other Villagers with the same condition. It only affects one in five hundred people. Would like to chat with someone who has a similar condition. I haven't seen much on TOTV regarding this condition.
