Hi,
Thanks for posting the query on HCM. After going through your query, I would like to comment the following:
1. If your Pulmonary function test and Xray chest are normal then it is possible that your asthma is controlled or you do not have asthma.
2. Considering you history of burp and trickling throat sensation there is a possibility of associated GERD. And medications for GERD may provide symptomatic relief. If the symptoms are persistent then you can go for HRCT scan of the thorax which if normal will rule out any pathology in the lungs.
3. Thus, a detailed clinical evaluation with a Pulmonologist is recommended.
I hope I have answered your query. I will be glad to answer follow up queries if any. Please accept my answer if you have no follow up queries.
