Hello and thank you for asking in HCM
I can understand your concern.
According to the history you are using a drug for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome, intestinal cramps, severe anxiety, pain in stomach, behavioral disorders, pain in abdomen.
But i am not sure for lung problems so i would recommend you:
A chest X ray
Spirometry
If they come negative the common problems of the lung that might cause the heaviness in chest are excluded and you should continue your medication,to lose weight too.
I am sure your treating doctor will advice you the above tests and will further recommend you the right treatment.
Wish you a good health
