Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. It is better to rule out cardiac problems by doing ECG and stress test. If that is clear then it can be most likely due to Gastroesophageal reflux. Taking proton pump inhibitors like esomeprazole ( Nexium ) for long term will be helpful to clear this.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
