What’re my odds of dropping dead randomly?

I have hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. I’m a 24 year old Male. 5’9” 156 pounds. I mostly only have symptoms when working out like a rapid heart beat and shortness of breath, but I know those are also just normal to have when working out. I’m pretty constantly paranoid about my heart and having a sudden heart attack or something. Does anyone else have the same diagnosis and symptoms? Currently on 50mg of metoprolol. At what point do doctors recommend surgery? I guess I’m just asking for advice on how not to constantly fear randomly dropping dead
