Pulmonologist 's  Response
Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion you should get done chest x ray first. As all the symptoms you are mentioning are favours lung infection.
So chest x ray is needed to diagnose pneumonia.
If this is normal than get done PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) to rule out bronchitis.
So better to consult pulmonoligist and get done chest x ray and PFT to rule out pneumonia and bronchitis.
I find this answer helpful
