Heart Rhythm

I like to flyfish, swim, mountain bike. My goal was always to do a triathlon so I signed up for a couple. But what I started noticing in my long workouts was real shortness of breath and trouble getting my heart rate back down and recovered. 

Tim and his wife

Tim is an avid outdoorsman. He enjoys fly fishing, mountain biking, running and more. Tim is also a husband and father, so when he noticed he was getting short of breath after longer workouts, he quickly sought the opinion of a cardiologist. He was diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a genetic condition where the heart muscle thickens and impacts the heart's function over time. Watch Tim's story to discover how he and his family are doing today.
