Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on HCM. In my opinion you should consult pulmonologist and get done atleast chest x ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). Bronchitis can cause tightness in chest. If you are obese than I suggest to under go sleep study. And many time night shift workers are having Shift worker Syndrome. In this due change in sleeping pattern, patient feels tiredness, weakness and excessive day time sleepiness. So consult pulmonologist and discuss these things with him.
