Thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your situation and problem.
In my opinion we should first rule out cardiac cause for your symptoms.
Because central chest pain with left shoulder pain with shortness of breath is seen commonly with cardiac problems.
So get done
1. ECG
2. 2d echo
To rule out cardiac cause.
If both are normal, then no need to worry at all for cardiac cause.
This might be due to anxiety and musculoskeletal pain.
So avoid stress and tension.
Be relax and calm.
Take painkiller and muscle relaxant for pain.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
