Thanks for your question on HCM. I can understand your problem. In my opinion,you are having GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) mostly. But better to rule out cardiac cause for your chest pain. So get done ECG first. If ECG is normal then no need to worry much for cardiac cause. GERD appears more in your case. It is due to laxity of gastroesophageal sphincter. Because of this the acid of the stomach tends to come up in the esophagus and cause the symptoms of burning chest pain. Try to follow these steps for better symptomatic relief. 1. Avoid hot and spicy food. 2. Avoid stress and anxiety. 3. Start proton pump inhibitor. 4. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
