hi and welcome in HCM.
It a good thing and the most important that you have stop smoking.
According to the history you better some further test to rule out probably lung problems as follows:
Spirometry with b/dilatators
Chest X Ray
Prick test
After the results the pulmonologist will advise you what is the next step.
Thank you
